Margaret Good (piano)
(First performance)
Grace Williams, who comes from Barry, South Wales, is one of the most distinguished Welsh composers. She studied with Vaughan Williams at the Royal College of Music and under Egon Wellesz in Vienna. The first performance of one of her orchestral works at the National Eisteddfod at Bangor in 1931 brought her public recognition. Although most of her music is modem in idiom it has a decided Welsh flavour, as for example her settings of the old oxen songs of Glamorgan, and her folk dances for orchestra based on old Welsh tunes. The Sinfonia Concertante was written in Lincolnshire (where the London School at which she teaches has been since the war), and during the holidays at Barry. It was completed in June 1941.
