Slow Dawn is a gentle and evocative piece for wind band. Berkeley depicts the gradual appearance of the sun (in the form of the tuba), 'shafts of light and playful reflections' which accompany the increasing warmth of day, the 'music of midday' suggesting 'the savage anger of heat in foreign climes with stabbing beams of light', and the final descent of the sun at the end of the day.
