Description
Blackbeard and his crew of ruffian freebooters aboard the ship Queen Anne’s Revenge were the terrors of the Atlantic and the Caribbean in the early 18th century. Composer James L. Hosay captures those turbulent times in music with his vivid and exciting tone poem, SWORDS AGAINST THE SEA. A rollicking sea chantey and the emotions of impending battle are described in the first two movements. Your audience will thrill to the sound and fury of battle in the final movement, as the most feared pirate of his day finally meets his match.
