It was composed, first performed and published in 1930. HistoryThe Clock and the Dresden Figures was premiered on 8 February 1930, using manuscript parts. The first recording was made on 27 February, resulting in a simultaneous issue of the recording and the sheet music, which was published by Bosworth.[1][2] A version for xylophone replacing the piano was published later.[1]Theme and musicA synopsis by the composer mentions that two Dresden china figures, which stand right and lift of a clock come to life. They dance, with the ticking clock providing the beat. When the Clock goes wrong, its spring breaks, and the figures return to their first positions.[1] In 1930, it was recorded, with the composer as the pianist, who took a fast tempo.[1] It was reissued in 2002 in a collection of his light music.[9] References1. ^1 {{cite web| last = McCanna| first = Tom| url = http://www.albertketelbey.org.uk/catalogue/data/orchestral.htm| title = Works for orchestra| website = albertketelbey.org.uk| accessdate = 4 July 2016}} [1][2][3]2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web| last = McCanna| first = Tom| url = http://www.albertketelbey.org.uk/discs/data/clock%20and%20the%20dresden%20figures.htm| title = The Clock and the Dresden Figures| website = albertketelbey.org.uk| year = | accessdate = 3 August 2016}} 3. ^1 {{cite web| url = http://www.naxos.com/catalogue/item.asp?item_code=8.110174| title = Ketelbey: In a Monastery Garden (Ketelbey) (1924–1932)| website = Naxos| year = 2002| accessdate = 19 July 2016}} 4. ^1 {{cite book| url = | title = The Clock and the Dresden Figures| publisher = Bosworth| year = 1930| accessdate = 3 August 2016}}
