Concert score with separate Trumpet part included in the PDF. 6 minutes duration.The text is taken from the poem ‘The Land of Story-Books’ by Robert Louis Stevenson, and describes a child’s imaginary world as inspired by their books. While parents sit quietly in the evening, the child escapes into an adventure from a ‘hunter’s camp’ behind the sofa. The story begins solemnly, laying a modal harmonic foundation, gradually becoming freer as the child’s imagination soars, cycling through the varied settings. The excitement finally subsides to sleepy codetta, as our adventurer returns ‘across the sea’ to reality, in time for bed.
