The Battle of Agincourt
The Battle of Agincourt
In October 1415, the English Army under Henry V won an unexpected victory in the Battle of Agincourt while outnumbered by a much larger foe. This victory was a pivotal moment in the Hundred Years' War and caused over a decade of English dominance to follow. Now updated with new percussion and a modern sound design package, our show The Battle of Agincourt follows the story of this historic battle in four movements through the use of mixed motifs and groupings of wind instruments. Between chaotic battle scenes and somber reflective moments, this all-original musical score is sure to make for a thematic and effective show!
