The Gates of Troy tells the story of the 1184 B.C. Trojan War in Ancient Greek times. This historic conflict featuring the heroes Achilles, Odysseus, Hector and the beautiful Helena, lasted 10 years and was settled by the famous ruse of the Greeks, the ‘Trojan Horse’. This exciting work is all about the battle between Greece and Troy. It’s full of heroic sounding themes with beautiful melodic material but yet playable for any type of band due to its well thought out instrumentation.
