Alun Hoddinott's music is characterised by immense energy and rhythmic drive, and often by lush instrumental colour. Although elements of his musical language are derived from the techniques of Schnberg, his works never abandon tonality and are more NeoRomantic than Modernist. His 1958 Welsh Dances are short, pithy and laced with zest. The second in particular is a charmer, especially zesty, and its scoring is deftly apposite for its purpose, the Arnoldian tinges quite clear.

The second in particular is a charmer, especially zesty, and its scoring is deftly apposite for its purpose, the Arnoldian tinges quite clear. It is also well-suited for Concert Band performance with so much colour that one scarcely misses the strings. This set of dances will be an important addition to the repertoire of Symphonic Bands and Wind Ensembles.
