Studio-Pop consists of five movements. The first
movement, entitled Marching on a String, is an
energetic rock march in a modern rhythm. Next,
the charming Dreaming of Summer has been
composed in three-four time – which is quite
unusual in modern pop music. The inspiration for
the third movement, Chicken-Charley was a young
man selling chicken legs from a stall. His supple,
dancing movements can be recognised in the music.
The fourth movement, Candlelight is a modern,
attractive ballad. Finally, Discoteca takes us along on
a night visit to a Spanish discotheque. The typically
Spanish chords and the stirring, high-spirited rhythm
provide an exuberant closing to Studio-Pop.
