| First performance | | 1 November 2003 | Venue | | Bridgewater Hall, Manchester | Orchestra / Ensemble | | Hallé Orchestra | Conductor | | Carl Davis | Review | | Hilary Finch, The Times, 4 December 1990 | | | With its subtle shifts of colour, its scrapping ebb and flow of percussion, and its gradual intensification, the first part evoked both Britten and Debussy. The latter and more substantial part, though, skilfully used a jig-like sliver of rhythm to build a vigorous scherzo of sure structure.
