Exuberant and entertaining this dynamic work is written all in one tempo and is perfect as a concert opener or festival number. Richard combines a tongue-in-cheek style with some jazzy elements while featuring brief solos forflute clarinet and bassoon (or tenor sax). Definitely NOT just some ?song and dance.?
