The Kolomoki Mounds is one of the largest and earliest Woodland Period earthwork mound complexes in the Southeastern United States and the largest in Georgia. These mounds were constructed between 350-600 A.D. The eight mounds include a Great Temple Mound, a ceremonial mound, several burial mounds and a large plaza in the center where some 1,500 residents lived in a large village of thatched houses. Kolomoki celebrates the Swift Creek and Weeden Island Indian cultures. Using the first six notes for young band, the piece begins with a rhythmic statement from the brass and percussion. A simple melody is introduced by the woodwinds and later found in the trumpet part. The middle section features smaller sections. The piece ends with restatement of the main theme with a woodwind counter melody. This piece is designed to make your beginners sound great.
