The name of Paul Dessau (1894-1979) probably summons up rather vague aural images of not unWeill-like music for Brecht's later plays.

This little collection takes us through the pseudo-orientalism of Scott in Lotus Land and Danse Orientale in which he summons up the anachronistic east of children's story books, the same atmosphere that Ravel commanded in his stupendous song cycle 'Sheherazade'. Columbine and the Pierrot Pieces have that little touch of phantasy that mesmerises but Scott's genius comes to its full fruition in 'the Garden of Soul- sympathy'. The sheer poetry of 'Poppies' and 'Paradise- Birds' contrast with the more thoughful Sonata, a work that lasts 26 minutes alone and shows how Scott was at home in the big league as well as in his miniatures.
