“The Grand Vizier’s Garden Party” is Nick Mason’s contribution (and closing suite) to the solo effort on Pink Floyd’s double album Ummagumma.
As for all other band members, this roughly half-a-side piece is written, composed and performed solely by Nick Mason himself with the exception of the flute pieces, performed by his wife Lindy.
“The Grand Vizier’s Garden Party” is a fully instrumental suite, meaning that it doesn’t include human voices of any kind, which is not as common as one might think in the Pink Floyd répertoire.
“The Grand Vizier’s Garden Party” being a three-part piece, with each part being very distinct, its “lyrics” here are divided into three parts to describe each of those.
[Entrance - Instrumental]
The suite’s “Entrance” is a short track opening with two flutes playing soft melodies responding to each other. Then a drum roll begins and sets the stage for the “Entertainment”.
[Entertainment - Instrumental]

[Exit - Instrumental]
The suite’s “Exit” sees the return of Lindy Mason’s flutes. This time, there are four of them: both ones from the “Entrance” and two additional ones to make the ensemble even more melodic.
