In this exciting four-movement suite Philip Sparke has taken the yearly cycle toinspire the framework for the work. Spring Sunshine describes a bright spring morning, Summer Siesta conjures up a quiet rest by a river on a hot summer afternoon. Autumn Alone heralds the approaching dark days of winter and Winter Winds brings the work to a close as it portrays stormy winter weather in all itsfury and glory. This work of great contrast is sure to become a favourite in your concert repertoire. |
