| Programme Note | Some people might find this piece a little on the serious side for use at a wedding, and not everyone chooses to have a whole three tiers of elaborate confectionery when they're getting married these days. Still, this is a half-serious look at the symbolism - unconscious, or only vaguely understood - of standing on a cake which is standing on another, bigger cake, which in turn is standing on... a poor oppressed hard-working under-appreciated tuba player! |
