Zeus: King Of The Gods

This Monumental Programmatic Work From The Pen Of Rob Romeyn Captures The Myth And Legend Of Zeus, The Mythical Master Of The Gods And Men. A Sky God, He Controls Lightning, Which He Uses As A Weapon, And Thunder. Itopens As Zeus Becomes Involved In The Trojan War, Hurling Lightning Bol Ts At His Opponents. The Tension Soon Subsides As We Are Introduced To The Eternally Beautiful Hera, Whom Zeus Would Eventually Marry. The Musicthen Ensues As Our Story Unfolds, As Zeus Made His Domain The Mountaint Ops And Clouds Where He Could Survey All Creation, And Inflict Pain And Justice On All Evildoers. Tension Builds As Zeus Battles Typhon In Hand To Hand Combat, Ending Ultimately With Zeus Throwing The Enormous Mt. Etna At The Monster, Pinning Him Underneath. From Here, The Tension Subsides, And A Beautiful Lyrical Section Builds To An Ending Of Incredible Power And Grandeur As Zeus Again Reaffirms His Stature As The Ruler Of Mt.Olympus. This Exceptional Work Is A Wonderful Addition To Any Concert O R Festival Performance!
