The lyrical Air and Dance for strings was written by Delius in 1915. The arrangement here which is for Violin and Piano was made in 1929 by Peter Warlock (Philip Heseltine) who was an admirer and friend of Delius. In this form it was played by Grace Thynne to Delius who considered that the arrangement was well done and that it made 'quite a pretty little piece'.

He also produced a version for string orchestra and both were published in 1926. Two years later in 1928 he made this arrangement for full orchestra. This new edition corrects a few minor errors that were present in the 1928 edition published by Curwen and also shows the trumpets in Bb; they were shown in C originally. The six movements which are based on sixteenth century dance tunes are:- Basse-Danse Pavane Tordion Bransles Pieds-en-l´air Mattachins.

8 Twentieth-Century Pieces. Having touched on the romantic era in 'To a Wild Rose' and the classical era in 'An die Musik', Kember moves forward to the twentieth-century with this thoughtfully chosen collection for string quartet. The Schott String Quartet Series With the first books in the series focusing on baroque, classical and romantic styles, The Schott String Quartet Series has expanded to cover music ranging from traditional pieces through to Eastern-influenced works. Aside from 'Indian Summer', which features original compositions, each book contains original arrangements of well known themes, which have often never been arranged for string quartet before. An important characteristic of these arrangements is that they allow all four instruments to demand the attention throughout the music. The pieces are suitable for amateur musicians or school students and are ideal for public performance./ Recueil / Quatuor à Cordes
