Notes
"Remarks" from back cover for each track:
A1. 0-1:10 'Dawn Song' type introduction.
1:11-1:42 Melodic theme in similar mood.
1:43-3:10 Angular contemporary staccato movement to full climax.
3:11-3:55 Second section of angular movement - slightly more intense.*
3:56-4:28 Descending string coda in similar mood to introduction.
A2. Rich emotional romantic melody.
A3. Light delicate in Ballet style - piano strongly featured.
A4. Peaceful and yet strong, idyllica pastoral undertones. Piano solo 2:06-2:36.
A5. 0-1:05 Hesitant fragmentary BG, inquisitive in mood.
1:06-1:44 Sad tragic realisation.
B1. Natural melody played by cellii and basses over continuous repetitive figure played by violins and violas.
B2. Joyous delicate air.
B3. Satirisation of chaotic and rather senseless activity.
B4. Intense imposing culmination of the various dramatic structures of the suite - many editing points.
B5. Combination of the various melodic themes in the suite growing in magnificence to climax.
* The music in this section is more commonly known in the UK as the theme tune for ITV's "News At Ten" between 1967 to 1992.
