Full Score of Colin Matthews' Suns Dance (1985) for Chamber Ensemble of 10 players.
Published by Faber Music.

Instrumentation: picc.ob.bcl.cbsn - hn - 2 vln.vla.vlc.db

‘The immediate and lingering impression of this 17-minute piece is its extraordinary energy, which seems to be limitless and has as its source the harmonic and rhythmic vigour of its generating motivic ideas and the imaginative, unusual tonal combinations … a fabric of intricate, nervy detail, shot through with vibrant colours and with arrestingly elaborate instrumental activity, which, though it whizzed by at the most exhilarating speed, had a clear sense of direction and structure.’

~ Paul Griffiths, The Times, 25th of March 1988
