Twelfth Night: A Musical Masque After Shakespeare

Shakespeare's verse in this famous comedy, “If music be the food of love, play on...” sets the tone for this major work by master composer Alfred Reed. Approached as a masque (a form of play-with-music commonly used in Shakespeare's time), this suite for wind orchestra takes the form of five separate movements, each related to a place or persons from the story. • I. Prelude: Illyria • II. Viola and Orsino • III. The Merry Conspirators • IV. Malvolio's Lament in “Prison” • V. A Double Wedding, and All's Well! – (duration - c. 15:00)
