Product Description

Faerie Tale Dances is a trio for sopranino recorder, E-flat clarinet, and toy piano commissioned by clarinetist James Applegate. A piccolo can be substituted for the recorder and the toy piano can be substituted with celesta or synthesizer. There are three movements that are about 7-8 minutes in total duration. The movement titles are 1. The Stroke of Midnight, 2. Mirror, Mirror, 3. Pixie Dust. Faerie Tale Dances is a three movement work depicting three different scenes of fairy tales. The first movement, The Stroke of Midnight refers to the story of Cinderella, specifically the ball. At the end of the ball, the clock strikes midnight (which is played by the toy piano) and Cinderella runs from the ball with the prince trailing after her. Mirror, Mirror, the second movement refers to Snow White and the famous scene and line said by the queen "mirror mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?" In this scene the Queen is startled by the mirrors response that Snow White is the fairest one in the land, begins raging, and then starts creating a poisoned apple. Pixie Dust, the final movement is in reference to the prominence of fairies and magic found throughout fairy talesthe most famous being Tinkerbell of Peter Pan.
