The Raid 2014


This piece tells the story of a conflict between the communities in the valleys around Sörenberg, a village in Entlebuch in the Swiss canton of Lucerne. An old legend from the 14th century tells of an attack on Sörenberg by marauding Obwaldners who stole the local cattle. It’s full of spectacular effects and impressive rhythmical and dynamic sequences. Ideal as a contest piece.

Composer: Oliver Waespi
Type: Test Piece
