The Marlott Dances

This is the second ‘storyboard’ for a musical/concept album based on Tess of the ‘dUrbervilles. Not sure where its going to end up! This is the scene where Tess is dancing on the green with the other young women of Marlott and where she first meets Angel Clare. I have used the Priest as both the forger of Tess’s destiny and narrator. This consists of two simple folk tunes, largely instrumental. Act 1 Scene 2.
