Dulcie Sybil Holland (5 January 1913 – 21 May 2000) was an Australian composer and music educator, regarded by some critics as one of the more significant composers of her generation. In 1936, she travelled to London to study composition at the Royal College of Music with John Ireland, winning the Blumenthal Scholarship for composition - she returned to Australia at the outbreak of World War Two in 1939. During the 1940s, alongside her composing she wrote a number of children's books and began a 25 year association with the North Shore Symphony Orchestra. 'Aria' was composed in 1954 for alto saxophone and string orchestra, dedicated to Clive Amadie. This arrangement for concert band has been produced using the piano reduction, bringing a symphonic sound to an enigmatic and soulful piece, suitable for all levels of player.
