Trafalgar 1805 - the overture

Posted: 4/27/05 at 12:33am

This year is the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar, in which Nelson defeated the French and Spanish fleets during the Napoloenic wars.

My piece is a 12-minute concert overture, a rousing, emotional and exciting sopund=picture of the greatest sea battle in history and the man whose death was mourned by a whole nation .

Orchestras and impresarios please take note. Sound samples on my personal site
