Lion of Lucerne (Overture)
Jenson Pub.
From Notes to the Director:
"During the French Revolution, most of the Swiss Guards were killed while defending the royal palace in Paris from attack by an angry mob. The memory of these Swiss Guards were preserved in the famous sculpture "Lion Of Lucerne". The composer had the opportunity of seeing the sculpture in the summer of 1985. He was so taken with this magnificent sculpture that he decided to write an overture to attempt to capture the spirit of the sculpture and the story behind its creation."
