Dragon Rhyme Movement II: Energetically By Chen Yi

This piece gets its title from the fact that its two movements mirror each other. Whereas the first movement of "Dragon Rhyme" has a very floaty feeling to it and features pitched percussion and woodwinds mostly, this movement goes the opposite way by being very fast and powerful, and featuring blaring brass and drums.
Performed by the Hartt School Wind Ensemble.

Maybe it's just the title that puts this image in my head, but I can see an aerial battle being fought in this one. Dragons gathering on one side or the other, perhaps being outfitted by their riders in armor, then taking wing with great gouts of flames to rend and tear, claw and bite at their misguided brethren.

This goes HARD. I'm just starting to dive into some of Chen Yi's works, and this one is certainly the most dazzling piece of hers I've come across so far

Whoah! Funny seeing you here. I purchased "Wind" by Chen Yi to play with my concert band and now I'm checking out more of her repertoire. Great contemporary composer!
