Spake she: 'Karl, consecrated sovereign, where is my Roland? Bring back to me my hero, he to whom you gave me as wife! Ah, what joy should I have in be- holding him once more!'" SUITE (No. 2), "INDIAN": Op. 48 This suite, in five movements, was composed in 1891-92. It is Mac Dowell's last and most im- portant orchestral work. Its thematic material, as he acknowledges in a prefatory note to the score, is based upon melodies of the North American Indians, with the exception of a few subsidiary th...emes of his own invention. "If separate titles for the different movements are desired," he says in his note, "they should be arranged as follows [I give them here together with the expression marks at the head of each movement, which are highly indicative of their character] : 1. "legend" ("Not fast; with much dignity and character") 2. "love-song" {"Not fast; tenderly") 3. "in war time" {"With rough vigor, almost savagely") 4. "dirge" (' ' Dirgelike, moumfuUy ' ') 5. "village festival" {"Swift and light") 196 MAC DOWELL Although there is no reason to beUeve that Mac Dowell has here based his music upon such a detailed dramatic plan as tmderlies, for example, his symphonic poem "Lancelot and Elaine" (see pages 1 91-194), it is evident that he was inspired by moods and pictures the nature of which is sufficient- ly indicated by the titles of the different move- ments.
