Published by Curnow Music (BT.CMP-0716-03-040). Powhatan County, Virginia was named after the great Native-American Chief Powhatan, whose confederacy of tribes once dominated the costal Virginia plain. He is most remembered for being the father of Pocahontas. His people are best known as the Native Americans who helped the Jamestown colonists survive. Several of these original tribes still exist today. The composer was inspired by the essence of this region and the James River which borders the northern portion of the county.
