Publisher Desc.  The score for Dale Dykins' Pastorale & Burlesque for wind quintet and piano was found among the composer's papers after his death in 2009.a Total duration ca. 6'30" The Pastorale & Burlesque was premiered April 28, 1955, where the program notes read: "The pastorale, suggesting as it does the music of shepherds and their pipes, is well suited to woodwind instruments. Mr. Dykins has introduced a lively scherzo as a center section to his pastorale to afford contrast to the somewhat melancholy first and last parts of the movement. A burlesque (also burla, burlesca or burletta) is a composition in a jesting mood."
