Danceries (Set II) - Kenneth Hesketh
Danceries Set II was commissioned by Keith Allen and Birmingham Symphonic Winds, supported by PRS for Music Foundation and the RVW Trust. The world premire of this work was given by Birmingham Symphonic Winds, conducted by Keith Allen, at the CBSO Centre, Birmingham in 2011. This second set of Danceries continues the format established in Danceries (Set I), namely in using material taken from Playford's Dancing Master, a collection of folk and popular tunes published in the seventeenth century, to form the basis of an extended dance suite. In this set, the melodies have been more abstracted and project only a distant echo of their original forms, but as before, each movement is self-contained, colourful and direct, with its own distinct mood.The outer movements - Jennie's Bawbee and Peascod's Galliarda - share a use of driving percussion writing with a military air. Tom Tinker's Toye and Heart's Ease (movements two and three) are both settings of original melodies. All movements are more extended than in the first set, with a freer use and approach to the material; melodies now occur in various keys and are supported by a greater variety of harmonic colouring. The result is a richer, even more exhilarating set of dances. Danceries has come of age!

The Rocky Road to Dublin
Getting to the heart of leaving home to seek a better life, this mid-19th century Irish folk song is given an authentic yet unique treatment in a setting for younger bands. Starting with a lilting upper woodwind melody with hand percussion, an expressive legato section follows before a return to the original material. Percussionists have several soli sections where they get a chance to shine. A brisk tempo, well-written percussion parts, and plenty of dynamic contrasts make this an excellent choice for concert and festival performances.

Dreidel Dance
Dreidel Dance is a lighthearted theme-and-variations mashup of The Dreidel Song and Hava Nagila, running both tunes through a stylistic funhouse and winding up in a flurry of high-speed energy. This arrangement is not for the faint of heart, but this whirlwind presentation by master arranger Robert Thurston is well worth the effort.
