The concerto
was inspired by István
Várdai's play and is
dedicated to him. The
triple movement structure
and the character of the
movements follow the
patterns of classical
concertos, while the
thematic connections
spanning the movements
rather reflect the
structural principles of
Romantic symphonies. In
the first movement, which
resembles the form of a
sonata, the characters of
the themes are
spectacularly separated.
The motif of the main
theme, constructed with
glissandos, is
supplemented by a theme
the composer refers to as
a motif of fate, and the
two together form a
significant contrast with
the minor theme with its
lyrical tone and the
playful, ending
themeresembling a
children's song. The
contrasts between depth
and height, as well as
darkness and light, have
a significant role in all
three movements. The
music of the first
movement gradually rises
to increasingly bright
and higher regions, the
gloomy atmosphere of the
marginal parts in the
second movement is offset
by the tune's
transcendental light in
its central part, while
the rondo theme of the
third movement with its
6/8 metre dance-like
character is supplemented
with motifs of a
contrasting nature from
the earlier
movements.

A
work for solo violin and
orchestra, commissioned
by Donald McDonald for
the 21st birthday of the
Scottish Chamber
Orchestra and the 60th
birthday of the composer.
It was first performed in
November 1993 in Glasgow,
by James Clark and the
Scottish Chamber
Orchestra conducted by
Maxwell Davies. The spell
is one quoted by George
Mackay Brown in his book
An Orkney Tapestry: 'Let
not plough be put to acre
except a fiddle cross
first the furrow.'
Davies's dancing concerto
imagines the fiddler
following a route from
field to field, from
dance to dance,
accompanied by a bunch of
companions in the form of
an orchestra. As the
music goes on, so it gets
brighter and livelier,
moving from the dark
colouring of clarinets,
bassoons and strings to
full ensemble with
prominent brass and
(solo) tuned percussion,
as if the dancers as much
as the fields were
beginning to glow with
new life. Score

20mins.

The
Havanaise possibly has
its roots in the
friendship of the
composer with the
Cuban-born violinist
Rafael Diaz Albertini. It
is thus perfectly
plausible that
Saint-Saens borrowed the
Cuban syncopated slow
dance Habanera out of
kindness towards his
performance partner when
he was getting ready to
write a work for Diaz
Albertini in 1887.
Saint-Saens originally
wrote a version for
violin and piano, which
was later followed by the
orchestral version that
the publisher Durand had
urged him to write. Diaz
Albertini, to whom the
work was dedicated, gave
its world premiere before
other virtuosos adopted
it for themselves and
spread its fame
throughout the world. The
basis of this first
Urtext edition of the
piece is the first
edition, which was
presumably personally
overseen by
Saint-Saens.
