Struck By The Ree

Description

William Owens

Honoring the legacy of Yankton Sioux Chief Palaneapape (“Struck by the Ree”) and his tireless efforts to foster peace, this musical tale portrays war, resolution, and escalating tensions. Thunderous percussion and strong melodic statements contrast with gentle and serene moments as William Owens pays homage to an important figure in American history.
