4 days ago · These dances were composed early in 1957, and are dedicated to the BBC Light Music Festival.

The first dance is in the style of a slow strathspey -- a slow Scottish dance in 4/4 meter -- with many dotted notes, frequently in the inverted ...
- Pesante. The heavy opening movement is marked ‘Pesante’, and has been described as “in the style of a strathspey” (Novello & Co). The trudging string theme is accentuated by the brass and percussion, with the shrieking woodwind adding to the timbre.
- Vivace. The quick second movement is based on a traditional Reel. Arnold utilises the woodwind during this movement, with their fast finger work and shrill timbre adding a lot of value to the movement.
- Allegretto. The sensitive third movement, also the longest of the four, opens with a sparkling harp and solo flute. Novello & Co describe this movement in the published score as “evoking a calm summer’s day in the Hebrides.”
