Info

"The Hounds of Spring" was commissioned by, and is dedicated to, the John L. Forster Secondary School Symphonic Band of Windsor, Ontario, and its director, Gerald A.N. Brown. The first performace took place in Windsor on May 8th, 1980, by this group, under the direction of the composer.

In the preface of the score there is a poem by Algernon Charles Swinburne:

When the hounds of spring are on winter's traces,
The mother of month in meadow or plain
Fills the shadows and windy places
With lisp of leaves and ripple of rain.

And soft as lisp that laugh and hide
The laughing leaves of the trees divide,
And screen from seeing and leave in sight
The god pursuing, the maiden hid.


A magical picture of young love in springtime, forms the basis for the present purely musical setting, in traditional three-part overture form...an attempt to capture the twin elements of the poem, exuberant youthful gaiety and the sweetness of tender love, in an appropriate musical texture.
