Ballet Music from
' Hiawatha '
TN 1912 Coleridge-Taylor returned to Long-fellow's Hiawatha, and planned a ballet on the subject. Its music was not connected with that previously written. These new scenes were later issued as an orchestral Suite, five numbers : (1) The Wooing; (2) The Marriage Feast; (3a) Bird Scene ; (3b) Conjuror's Dance ; (4) The Departure ; (5) Reunion.

Three Dream Dances.
In 1910 Coleridge-Taylor was commissioned by Sir Herbert Tree (for some of whose productions he had already written incidental music) to compose music for Alfred Noyes' fairy play, The Forest of Wild Thyme. The play was not, after all, put on the stage by Tree, and the Composer issued some of his music under various titles - Scenes from an Imaginary Ballet and Christmas Overture, among others. These Dream Dances are another part of that incidental music.
