The Young Person's Guide To The Orchestra, Op. 34 Fugue: Allegro Motto

So you see

the composer Benjamin Britten has taken the whole orchestra apart

now he puts them back together again in a fugue

the instruments come in one after another

in the same order as before begining with a piccolo

and at the end, when all the instruments have finally come in

the brass will play old Henery Purcell's melody

while the other instruments go on playing young Benjamin Britten's fugue
