String Quartet in F played by the New London Quartet: Erich Gruenberg (violin)
Lionel Bentley (violin) Keith Cummings (viola) Douglas Cameron (cello)
The compositions of Phyllis Tate , which include a Saxophone Concerto, Nocturne for Four Voices, and a Sonata for clarinet and cello (all of which have been broadcast), reveal deft workmanship and imaginative qualities of a high order Her String Quartet, brought forward at the Cheltenham Festival last June, is tonight receiving its first broadcast performance. There are four movements. The first is largely contrapuntal in texture; the second is a slow Cantilena; the third, a type of intermezzo marked Allegretto grazioso. The finale opens wirh a slow chorale leading to a fairly straightforward quick movement momentarily interrupted near the end by a return of the chorale. H.R.
