Originally composed as the overture for his opera The Perfect Fool but ultimately not used, Holst displays his wit and exuberance in this delightful work. Showcasing his interest in counterpoint, it is not a strict fugue, but a more of a comic fugue-parody using canonic material. Offered here is a study score for the newly engraved critical edition based upon the composer’s manuscript and first edition prepared by Richard W. Sargeant Jr., printed on high quality stock and perfect-bound with a glossy cover. The large conductor’s score and orchestra parts are also available for sale from Serenissima Music, inc.
