From ancient times to the present day, music and dance have captured the spirit of humanity. Today's concert showcases three contrasting composers: Malcolm Arnold, Hans Werner Henze, and Edward Gregson. Arnold's Four Scottish Dances, composed in 1957, draws its inspiration from traditional Scottish folk dances. Henze's Ragtimes and Habaneras, written in 1976, was famously performed by the Grimethorpe Colliery Band at the BBC Proms that same year. Finally, Gregson's Dances and Arias merges lively, energetic dances with soulful, contemplative melodies, bringing the concert to a rousing conclusion.
