Air and Dance

The lyrical Air and Dance for strings was written by Delius in 1915. The arrangement here which is for Violin and Piano was made in 1929 by Peter Warlock (Philip Heseltine), who was an admirer and friend of Delius. In thisform it was played by Grace Thynne to Delius, who considered that the arrangement was well done and that it made 'quite a pretty little piece'.
