AUGMENTED ORCHESTRA (Leader, FRANK CANTELL )
Conducted by JOSEPH LEWIS
ELGAR'S interest in young people appears in quite a number of his compositions. This Suite might bo described as a Fantasy on a quotation from Charles Lamb , from the reverie which Lamb calls by the same name—' Dream Children.' The first dreamy tune is played very softly by the two clarinets in thirds. In the second movement, two delicate themes are heard together, one on the clarinet and one on the strings.
