Harlequin was commissioned by, and is dedicated to, euphonium virtuoso David Childs.The piece takes its inspiration from the happy and sad masks that symbolise the Commedia dell'Arte (which features Harlequin as one of its main characters) and comprises of two movements, a slow modal ballad followed by a frenetic faster movement. A fantastic showpiece for the euphonium and brass band.

Harlequin wurde im Auftrag des Euphonium-Virtuosen David Childs geschrieben. Inspirationsquelle der Komposition waren die fröhlichen und traurigen Masken, die so typisch für die Commedia dell’Arte - mit dem Harlekin als einen der Hauptcharaktere - sind. Philip Sparkes Komposition besteht aus einer langsamen modalen Ballade, gefolgt von einem fieberhaft schnellen Satz. Ein großartiges Solowerk für Euphonium und Brass Band!
