The words 'for small hands' used in the title of the Concerto may suggest that it is an easy piece aimed at children. Weel, it is not as such. Its volume (duration 19 minutes) already creates a problem of a long concentration span and music tension. (...) Technically speaking, the work requires high manual agility, as well as imagination and virtuosity at times. (...) Once the performer of this concert has overcome the hardships of comprehending and mastering parts I and II, there awaits an award - part III: uncomplicated text, pure joy, life, temperament, wit, cheek. The piece ends with the krakowiak in fff dynamics! [Andrzej Jasi ski].

Exhi larating and celebratory, the rhythmic demands of Dance Works as well as its physical nature are closer to rock, jazz and even medieval music.'Dance works' was written specifically for dance theatre and originally scored for the Steve Martland band. Martland's own arrangement for 2 pianos retains all the rhythmic power of the ensemble version but opens up new possibilities for concert performance or small scale or touring dance companies.
