Sciaino, Peter: The Trident - Full Score

The trident is the three-pronged spear of Poseidon, god of the seas in Greek mythology. It was said that when Poseidon was angered he could use this spear to wreak havoc by creating tsunamis, earthquakes, and other ocean disasters. This selection portrays his anger through a powerful and haunting soundscape that employs a three-pronged melody as a musical representation of the mythological spear.
