Atlantis: A Lost Empire - Kelly Bennette

Grade 5
Spectacular Piece!
Kelly Bennette is one of the best I have heard and seen at creating a complex and compelling composition that will intrigue any musician and entertain and mesmerize any audience.
Published by Molenaar Edition, this piece depicts the story of Atlantis. The Atlanteans had a wonderful society with advanced technology, beautiful architecture, great art and music and a strong military. As time went on, Atlantis became more and more militaristic. They invaded Europe. No army was a match for Atlantis until they invaded Athens. After suffering defeat by the army of Athens, the Atlanteans returned to Atlantis. Soon after their return home, the Earth suffered a significant tectonic event that changed the structure of the planet's crust. This resulted in Atlantis sinking into the ocean and becoming, for all times, a lost empire.
