Edmund Matthews , who studied at Marlborough and Oxford, has written a number of works for orchestra, including an overture ' The Queen of Ithaca which was broadcast last November. He wrote his Symphonic Rhapsody in 1945 to celebrate the Allied victory, his intention being to give the impression of a conflict and its resolution in the form of a sinfonietta in one movement. From one of the themes heard early in the work, a fugue subject is evolved; the fugue reaches a climax in a chorale, which in the final section appears in augmented form in combination with the other principal themes.

Caprice in E flat
Caprice in A minor Scherzo Tarantelle
Wieniawski, the son of a doctor in Poland, showed his musical bent so early that at the age of eight he was allowed to enter the Conservatoire in Paris, winning the first prize for violin playing when he was only eleven.
Most of his busy life was spent in concert tours, and even after his health was failing, he continued to make brilliantly successful appearances. His mastery of the instrument was so complete that his music for it is difficult and brilliant, demanding fine execution; it is all, however, so admirably suited to the violin that its popularity is inevitable.
