The Clock and the Dresden Figures is a piece of light classical music for piano with orchestra (or military band) by Albert Ketèlbey.

The Clock and the Dresden Figures was premiered on 8 February 1930, using manuscript parts.

[1] A synopsis by the composer mentions that two Dresden china figures, which stand right and lift of a clock come to life.

They dance, with the ticking clock providing the beat.

When the Clock goes wrong, its spring breaks, and the figures return to their first positions.
