0 worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; let the whole earth stand in awe of him. Tell it out among the heathen that the Lord is King; and that it is he who hath made the round world so fast that it cannot be moved; and how that he shall judge the people righteously.

Stanley Bate , who was born in Devon in 1913, studied with Vaughan Williams at the Royal College of Music, and subsequently with Nadia Boulanger in Pans and with Hindemith in Berlin. In 1941 he toured Australia, lecturing on British and contemporary music under the auspices of the British Council. In the following year he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in New York; he also appeared as soloist in his Piano Concerto at Carnegie Hall, with Sir Thomas Beecham conducting.
His Piano Concertante was performed under the direction of Bruno waiter in 1942, and in the same year his Sinfonietta No. I was given at the International Festival of Contemporary Music, when it won (in the words of Milhaud) great success by its qualities of vivacity and charm.' Harold Rutland
