Publisher Desc.  Ancient Ruins is a piece for concert/symphonic band in the Medium-Easy to Medium range. The music begins with a flute solo echoed by a baritone/euphonium solo. It then develops into sonorous, modal melodies and harmonies. After a climactic exposition, the becomes fast and aggressive as though one is adventuring through the jungle, exploring ancient ruins and dodging any dangers that arrives. There is a "percussion feature" section as well as a mini-canon featuring primarily woodwinds. Everything then reprises for an epic finish.
