Alfred Reed
(1921-2005) was one of
America's most prolific
and frequently performed
composers. The Hounds of
Spring was composed in
1980 and was inspired by
the poem “Atalanta in
Calydon” by Algernon
Charles Swinburne. In
this concert overture,
Reed captures the
elements of youthful
exuberance and tenderness
of love expressed in the
poem. Remaining true in
form and intent to the
original, Robert
Longfield has masterfully
shortened and adapted
this work for younger
bands. Dur: 5:30.
