VII. THE COLOSSUS OF RHODOS - In the 3rd century B.C. the seaport town of Rhodos on the Greek island of the same name was very flourishing. In order to commemorate a victory against Demetrios Piorcetos, a huge bronze statue of the sun god Helios was erected in the harbour in 280 B.C. The statue, made by the sculptor Khares, was 35 m high and the ships had to pass between the statue's legs to enter or leave the harbour. The colossus was destroyed by an earth quake in 224 B.C. With this beautiful original symphony, Alex Poelman has, no doubt, enriched the better concert repertoire for symphonic band.
