A dramatic, surround-sound work based on the Biblical account of the battle of Jericho recorded in the Old Testament in Joshua 6. It is scored for wind symphony (band) or orchestra, with narrator, optional chorus, and features extensive (and unorthodox!) audience participation. The last third of the piece draws a parallel between the walls of Jericho and the walls we build around our own lives; walls intended for protection, but walls which bring separation; walls which need to come down.
