Composed by J. Bell. Concert Band. Score and set of parts. Composed 2019. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-4733-00. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-4733-00). The Lost City of Shambhala takes the listener on a journey to the discovery of the mythical utopia, nested in the Himalayas. In Sanskrit, Shambhala means place of peace, and the music paints an Eden-esque landscape shrouded in mystery. But it is soon discovered that entry into the city is well-guarded and met with hostility as the music shifts to a heavily percussive, driving thrill-ride of shifting 7/8 and 4/4 time signatures. An exciting and energetic work that makes a fantastic addition to any program!
