THE BBC NORTHERN ORCHESTRA

Leader, ALFRED BARKER 
Conductor, T. H. MORRISON   
The complete Ballet consists of six movements, some of them old dance forms, and some more modern. The date in which it is set is the early sixteenth century, and the scene is in the gardens of Francis I, King of France, at Fontainebleu. The great Emperor Charles V has come to pay the French King a visit, and splendid festivities have been arranged to do the guest honour. 
The Ballet begins with the impressive entiy of the Master of the Revels. Obedient to his command, a nymph of the forest appears, and she summons the old Olympic gods and goddesses. They all join in a wild Bacchanalian dance, and when it has come to an end, the nine Muses appear, with Phoebus Apollo as their guide. The next part of the Ballet tells of Amor and Psyche. It is tender, quiet music, in striking contrast to the earlier part. There is a slow movement with a variation in which the flute is prominent, and a melodious waltz brings the Suite to an end.
