Scena, The Ballad of Black Eyed Susan
Quartet of Sailors
The scone is laid on board an old-time sailing-ship. Sailors tire dancing a jolly hornpipe and the ballad tells of the tender parting of William and Black-Eyed Susan. As the 'lessoning boat' rows back to land, there is hoard the sound of a phantom hornpipe, a weird, unearthly tune, in which the mocking spirit of the sea laughs at the truth of lovers' vows.
ORCHESTRA
Fandango (the Duenna)
ALFRED REYNOLDS has been for years intimately associated with Sir Nigel Playfair's post-war adventure at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith. His first real opportunity at that theatre came with the production of Sheridan's The Duenna, the music of which was originally composed by Thomas Linley. 'When we were planning our production,' Sir Nigel Playfair has recorded in his book 'Hammersmith Hoy,' it was obvious that the music would need a very great deal of overhauling, and indeed re-writing; and for the purpose we called in Mr. Reynolds. Mr. Reynolds was already a very distinguished pianist, and he conducted for us in the 'Insect Play.' He is such a modest man that it was with a great deal of difficulty that I persuaded him of his competence for the task: when he sat down to it, however, he became enthusiastic, and by the time he had finished, there was really a good deal more Reynolds than Linley in the composition.' From that day, each of the later Lyric, Hammersmith, productions has had, if not 'more Reynolds than X' in the composition, at least enough Reynolds to make the music a very fascinating and important part of the whole.
