Soave A movement from a set of 12 Fantasias for Violin (1735) by Georg Phillipp Telemann (1681-1767).
St Patrick's Day Traditional Jig, with a printed version as early as 1740.
Over Stars A composition by Edmund Pracht.
Prelude – Deep Peace A prelude based on the well-known song.
Southerly Wind Based on the traditional song Blow the Wind Southerly.
Prelude II The second of three Preludes for Piano by George Gershwin (1898-1937).
Andante con Moto The second movement of Piano Concerto No.4 by Ludwig van Beethoven (1720-1827).
The pianoforte part is transcribed for lyres in four parts, the orchestral parts being left to be played by piano
(from a piano reduction of the score), or by a string quartet (as in the original full score).
Where it seems the music is to be played on a single lyre, it should be borne in mind that Colin himself was a masterful lyre player; the pieces could be adapted to be played by more than one lyre.
This edition follows the original manuscripts. There are no editorial changes or additions, which leaves performers
a certain freedom of interpretation.
