But one of the most interesting aspects of ancient Mayan culture was an event referred to as "The Ball Game." This is the mysterious and exotic setting for James L. Hosay's MAYAN SPORTS FESTIVAL (Fantasy Suite).The superbly colorful orchestration and dynamic percussion writing in this bold and inventive new work will excite the listener and free the imagination.
