Aeolian String Quartet:
Sydney Humphreys. Trevor Williams
Watson Forbes , Derek Simpson
This is the first of three programmes by the Aeolian String Quartet which will include all Borodin's music for string quartet, and the two quartets written by Borodin, Glazunov, Lyadov, and Rimsky-Korsakov in honour of their patron, the wealthy timber-merchant Mitrofan Belayev. The first of these, written in 1886, is known as the ' B-la-f ' Quartet; each of the four composers contributed a movement. The second, ' Jour de Fete,' written in 1887, has only three movements, since Borodin died in February that year.

by Henry Green
Mr. Green's unfinished novel "Mood" was written in the late twenties. He says: '...to establish a girl... in a static situation where nothing is happening to her except her thoughts and feelings, is an impossible project for the novelist.'
