Two dances
for flute and harp from
Peter Maxwell Davies'
ballet Caroline Mathilde.
A new instrumentation
restores this linked pair
of dances from Davies's
second full-length
ballet, Caroline Mathilde
based on the story of the
eighteenth-century
British princess sent in
marriage to Denmark, to
the eighteenth-century
milieu of the work's
setting and musical
world. The period manners
- a gavotte in the first
dance, a gigue at the
start of the second - are
typically overlaid with
the composer's
Scottishness. In general
the harp has an
accompanying role, but it
comes forward alone in
the second movement,
which ends with bravura
from both instruments.
These two dances were
first performed in
September 1993 at the
Northlands Festival by
David Nicholson and
Eluned Pierce. Score and
flute part. Duration c.
5mins. Harp part edited
by Elune Pierce.
