November Woods

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The tone poem November Woods was written by the British composer Arnold Bax in 1917. It is for many his greatest tone poem.

It opens with a dramatic depiction of a stormy woodland landscape, followed by a much more peaceful section and development before the stormy opening mood returns towards the end.

A typical performance of this work lasts 18 minutes.
