Earth Dances is a 1986 orchestral work by British composer Harrison Birtwistle. Its title is part of a geological metaphor that is also found in the piece's structure: Birtwistle has divided the orchestra into six 'strata', whose changing relationships reflect those of the earth's geological layers.[1] It was originally composed for the BBC Symphony Orchestra.[2]
