Service programmes
Conductor, Gregor J. Grant
Bryan Gipps (violin) Helene Gipps (piano) These works, although both nominally sonatas, are in marked contrast as regards construction. The Brahms is built on strictly classical lines with the innovation of a second movement consisting of a slow section alternating with one in dance rhythm. The Delius is a short work in one movement more rhapsodical than classical in form.

'Winifred Small (violin) ; Loraine du Val (violin) ; Eileen Grainger (viola);
Florence Hooton (cello)
This is the third of the set of six quartets dedicated to Haydn. The second (andante con moto) of its four movements is full of Mozart's romantic feeling. The same mood reappears in the trio to the minuet movement.

Conductor, Sir Adrian Boult The last three Symphonies of Mozart
-No. 39, in E flat, No. 40, in G minor, and No. 41, in C-are generally regarded as his finest. They were written in Vienna between June 26 and August 10, 1788, their compositions thus occupying the incredibly short period of just over six weeks. No. 41 is generally known as ' The Jupiter ' -upon whose authority it is not known: it is in the usual four movements, the last of which is a monumental yet completely genial movement in fugue.
