Alfred Reed (1921-2005) was one of America's most prolific and frequently performed composers. The Hounds of Spring was composed in 1980 and was inspired by the poem "Atalanta in Calydon" by Algernon Charles Swinburne. In this concert overture, Reed captures the elements of youthful exuberance and tenderness of love expressed in the poem. Remaining true in form and intent to the original, Robert Longfield has masterfully shortened and adapted this work for younger bands.

Alfred Reed (1921-2005) gilt als einer der erfolgreichsten und produktivsten amerikanischen Komponisten. The Hounds of Spring (Des Frühlings Hunde) entstand im Jahr 1980 nach dem Gedicht Atalanta in Kalydon von Algernon Charles Swinburne. Reed zeichnete in seiner Konzertouvertüre die beiden Hauptthemen des Gedichts, jugendlichen Uberschwang und zarte Liebe, musikalisch nach. Robert Longfield orientierte sich beim behutsamen Kürzen und Arrangieren der Originalkomposition eng an ihrer ursprünglichen Form und Intention.
