ORCHESTRA
Suite, ' Famous Beauties '
PERCY FLETCHER , well known for many years as Conductor at His Majesty's Theatre, is largely a self-taught musician. He is best known, perhaps, for his incidental music to spectacular plays, such as Cairo, produced at His Majesty's.
He has written four Orchestral
Suites and a good many popular Choral pieces, besides some Pianoforte and Chamber Music.
He is one of the few composers of today who have written large-scale works for the Brass Band. His Epic Symphony was written as the test-piece for the chief competition at the annual Brass Band Festival at the Crystal Palace.
His Suite Famous Beauties, contains three pieces, thus entitled : (1) A Vision of Aphrodite ; (2) In the Palace of Old Versailles; (3) At the Court of Cleopatra.
