GOLDMARK'S work is really a Suite of pieces, threaded together by a common idea, rather than a full-dress Symphony. It has five Movements, of which the one we are to hear is the fourth - a romantic, idyllic Movement that shows the composer's skill in light music.
Goldmark is one of those musicians who are remembered only by one or two works. He made a great hit fifty years ago with the Opera
The Queen of Sheba, but was never able all the rest of his life to write another work that was anything like so successful.

Jardins sons la Pluie (Gardens in the rain) Debussy
In the Gardens of Murcia ............ Turina River Gardens ........................ Besly Paris Garden (from 'Pagan Suite')..... Peterkin Country Gardens (Handkerchief Dance) Grainger

IN Debussy's piece we shelter beneath the canopy of a leafy tree and watch the steadily-falling, gentle rain-shower. We may imagine we hear a distant rumble of thunder and see a flash or two of summer lightning. Then the clouds clear away and the sun bursts out again.

COUNTRY GARDENS is the original, or aboriginal. name of one of the traditional dance tunes which the late Cecil Sharpe noted down somewhere in England and published in his book of Morris Dance Times. To the expert it is a 'handkerchief dance'; to ordinary folk it is a jolly and captivating tune with a touch of Handel's best in it. Percy Grainger has made it into an exhilarating piano piece.
