Three years' intensive study with Tobias Matthay followed. She won the Woodward Smith scholarship in 1931, and at a concert given by his students two years later brought the house down with those same two studies of Liszt and Schlozer which also made her name with the gramophone public.' In 1936 she toured Australia.

A reading

String Quartet in A minor played by the Melsa Quartet
In a letter to one of his friends, written about the time when he was composing the A minor String Quartet, Schubert says that he is ' the most unhappy and wretched creature in the world '. The first movement is, perhaps, rather melancholy in mood, but at the same time it has its moments of brightness. , The slow movement is based on a theme from the ' Rosamunde ' music, which is treated meditatively and lyrically. The Minuet is reminiscent of the composer's songs. The last movement has a lightness of touch and happiness of feeling that serve as an excellent contrast to what has gone before.

and his Band with Harry Davis , featuring Beryl Davis , Diane, Alan Dean , Bobby Young , and Eddie Palmer with his novachord
Oscar Rabin 's Band is famous for many things ; its all-round excellence ; its regular singers, Diane and Beryl Davis ; and the compering by Beryl's father, Harry Davis.
Oscar Rabin himself is one of the most self-effacing band-leaders before the public. On stage engagements he plays bass saxophone and sits in with the band. But the organisation behind the band is his special triumph. Many members have been with the band for years, some even for the whole sixteen years of its existence.
