This work is a companion piece to the earlier “Bells of Ghengis Khan”. The insistent rhythms and pounding fifths create an atmosphere of impending conflict. The middle section depicts night time when the soldiers reflect upon their loved ones. This however is short lived as the battle is resumed and the victors’ shouts of triumph are heard. Many techniques such as harmonics, tremolo and pizzicato add to the rich tapestry of tone colours.
