Theme and Variations, for string quartet
These Variations originally formed the second movement of a String Quartet— consisting of two movements in all - written shortly before the war and scheduled to be played at the Venice Festival of 1939. But the Festival was cancelled and the score lost: and the composer, feeling that the second movement formed a complete String Quartet in itself, reconstructed it from his notes.
