‘Circus Delight’ is a five-part suite which is set, how could it be otherwise, in a big circus tent.

The suite starts with a part called ‘Entrance’. The orchestra, positioned above the entrance of the ring asks for the attention of the audience and then the ring announcer enters. The show can begin!
The elephants play a central role in the first act. These colossal grey animals are rather slow and perform their tricks in a moderate tempo. (‘Elephant Blues’)
How different are ‘The Acrobats’. At high speed they run, jump and fly through the ring, until ....... It gets very exciting. Fortunately, all’s well that ends well and they take their leave of the audienceat a trot.
Everyone knows, and yet it is mostly not spoken about, that when a clown has taken off his red nose and rubbed off his make-up, his face off-stage is not always a happy one. (‘Tears of the Clown’)
The piece ends on a cheerful note with ‘The Parade’, in which all the artists make their entrance in the ring once again to gratefully acknowledge the audience’s overwhelming applause.

‘Circus Delight’ is een vijfdelige suite die zich afspeelt in, hoe kan het ook anders, een grote circustent.

De suite begint met ‘Entrance’. Het orkest dat boven de ingang van de piste zit vraagt de aandacht van het publieken de spreekstalmeester komt binnen. De voorstelling kan beginnen.
De olifanten staan centraal in de eerste act. De grote grijze kolossen zijn niet de snelste dieren en vertonen hun kunsten in een rustig tempo. (‘ElephantBlues’)
Bij ‘The Acrobats’ is dat wel even anders. In rap tempo hollen, springen en vliegen ze door de piste totdat ... het heel spannend wordt. Maar het gaat gelukkig goed en in snel tempo nemen ze afscheid van het publiek.
Iedereen weet het en toch, er wordt meestal niet over gesproken dat wanneer de clown na de voorstelling zijn rode neus en schmink afdoet, we zien dat het gezicht van de clown niet altijd lacht. (‘Tears of the Clown’)
We sluiten vrolijk af met ‘The Parade’ waarin alle artiesten nog een keer in de piste voorbijkomen, om het overweldigende applaus dankbaar in ontvangst te nemen.

Sponsored by the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, this folk song is from a collection of songs native to the area. “Tengo” translates as “I have” but what the song is really saying is “I have plenty.” It is a playful children's folk song which teases a neighbor in sharing the animals' “I have” and what they produce, compared to the neighbor who has nothing. Judith Herrington has arranged it delightfully for 2-part voices with an entertaining piano accompaniment.
