Version for Concert Perfomance

Symphony
Now the Night is chas'd away
Let the fifes and the clarions
Dance
When a cruel long winter
Hail, great Parent
Thus the ever grateful Spring
Here's the Summer, sprightly, gay
See, my many-coloured fields
Next, Winter comes slowly
Prelude
Come all ye songsters of the Sky
The Songsters
May the God of Wit inspire
Echo
Now join your warbling voices all
Scene of the Drunken poet
See, even Night herself is here
I am come to lock all fast
One charming Night
Hush, no more
Dance for the followers of Night
Overture
If love's a sweet passion
The Plaint: O let me weep
Dialogue between Coridon and Mopsa
Dance for the Haymakers
A thousand, thousand ways
Hornpipe
Rondeau
Hark th'echoing air
Sure the dull God of Marriage
See, I obey
Turn then thine eyes
My torch indeed
They shall be as happy
Chaconne
