OL This spirited Overture, a kind of "HandyAndy" in music, was first performed at &@ Halle Orchestra concert in Manchester, under Sir Hamilton Harty, to whom it is dedicated. On the composer’s own confession it has no programme, and it can be considered as merely illustrating the title. Indeed, the first indication to the violins is to play a melody in a manner ‘" gay and impudent," and the whole overture moves in that gait. No other word than picaresque could adequately describe it. 7.39 Studio recital by Alison Cor3:74 (soprano), "The.
