By the end of the 9th century, the Vikings had defeated all five English Kindoms. The entire country is in the hands of the invaders - except for a small marsh area. Here King Alfred von Wessex is hiding with a few loyal followers. Uhtred, a warrior in Alfred›s ministry, knows the supremacy of the Viking Army.
Nevertheless, Alfred wants to take a final, decisive battle. The pious king bets on God›s help, but Uhtred is more familiar with his bat-tle-sword. But the two unequal allies are perfectly united on one thing:
if the last «Throne of the North» falls, this defeat would be the downfall of England.
Throne of the North won the 1st composition-competition of the Philhar-monic Society of Mantzaros in
2017 in Corfu, Greece, and the Orchestra-Award.
