Poco allegro VI. Allegretto VII. Moderato Good for recitals, this piece is really melodic and cheerful, with some parts quiet and others quite energetic.

“The Symphony No.39 In E Flat K.543 was finished in Vienna on 26th June 1788. Together with the symphonies in G minor and C major Jupiter (all three were composed in less than a month), it marks the summit of Mozart's achievement in symphonic form. Although this symphony breaks no new ground as regards the use of orchestral instruments, it is nevertheless one of the first examples of modern orchestration, because the resources of each instrument and the various combinations of timbre are here exploited with great skill.This miniature score is an excellent resource for perusal or private study of this work.”.

Schubert's 5th Symphony is sunny, Viennese, scored originally for small classical orchestra and positively effervesces with ideas. Stuart Johnson has taken the theme from the 2nd movement - Andante con moto - and brought this gem within the reach of technically less advanced players without diminishing the musical quality.

Schubert's delightful 5th Symphony in Bb Major, written in 1816, is a miniature, perhaps consciously avoiding comparison with Beethoven's Fifth, written just 10 years earlier. Schubert's Great was to come later! The work is sunny, Viennese, scored originally for small classical orchestra and positively effervesces with ideas. Stuart Johnson has taken the theme from the 2nd movement - Andante con moto - and brought this gem within the reach of technically less advanced players without diminishing the musical quality.

Miniature Suite was written for David Munrow in 1969, receiving its first performance with harpsichordist Christopher Hogwood in London's Purcell Room that year. The material of each of its five movements is drawn from the recorder's solo introduction. Following the enthusiasm of recorder virtuosi John Turner it was revised in 2011, and the revised version was first performed by John Turner and Ian Thompson in Casterton Church on April 3rd 2011. The works has been recorded by the same artists for the Prima Facie label (Recorder Fireworks PFCD0010).

David Lord was born in Oxford in 1944 and studied under Richard Rodney Bennett at the Royal Academy of Music. As a young composer he received many commissions, including works for Julian Bream, Janet Baker, George Malcolm, Imogen Holst, the London Symphony and Northern Sinfonia Orchestras and the Bath, Cheltenham and Aldeburgh Festivals. More recent years have seen him active as a record producer (XTC, Peter Gabriel, Echo and the Bunnymen, the Korgis, Tears for Fears, Jean Michel Jarre) and writer/arranger for film and TV (Cracker, Inspector Rebus etc).
