Full score of The Unicorns orchestral suite. In 1967 Peter Dickinson commissioned an opera libretto from the distinguished poet John Heath-Stubbs (1918-2006). The opera was never completed but, in 1980, when Dickinson was commissioned to write a work for Elisabeth Sderstrm and Solna Brass of Sweden, he turned back to the sketches and developed a six-movement suite which was premiered in Stockholm on 31 October 1982 and recorded shortly afterwards. The story tells of two unicorns discovered in a remote part of Africa.
