Description

Big Sur: Suite for Marimba and String Orchestra is generally about the natural beauty of Big Sur, California, but also pays homage to three of the main performers who made the area famous for folk music with their performances at the 1969 Big Sur Folk Festival – Joan Baez, The Beach Boys, and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. It is set in three movements: Morning Fog, Coastal Redwoods, and Highway One.
