This composition is based on the children's song 'Three Blind Mice', of which the melody is featured in a range of variations: in a canon, in inversion, in minor, transformed, with changing harmonisations and orchestrations, andin different times and tempi. The work consists of three continuous, contrasting movements: 1) 'Mouse March': The mice cheerfully set off while the original melody is presented as a march. - 2) 'Hymn': In a tuneful hymn, the wonderful praises of the life of mice are sung. - 3) 'Catch Me If You Can': In an animated chase, the farmer's wife is trying to catch the mice. Following a stirring acceleration, she cuts off their tails in accordancewith the lyrics of the song. I hope this work, with its humorous touch, will be a welcome contribution to the expansion of interesting repertoire for the lower divisions. - 'Bert Appermont'
