A Kiss in Spring
For the 1932 performances at the Alhambra Theatre in London the title was changed to A Kiss in Spring and the score was re-worked and supplemented by Herbert Griffiths (who had previously worked on the English adaption of Walzer aus Wien). There were additional orchestrations by a distinguished set of musicians: Constant Lambert, Arthur Wood, Alfred Reynolds and Walford Hyden. The choreography was by Frederick Ashton and the dancers included a young Alicia Markova as well as Harold Turner, Walter Gore and Prudence Hyman. [2][3]
