First N.Z. Performance
all the excellent recitals given from 4YA by the English ‘cellist Peers Coetmore, and the pianist Dorothy Davies, I enjoyed most the Moeran Sonata. Modern enough to be immediately arresting, yet constructed with such a solid structural backbone that it is immediately understandable, the sonata is a fine piece of work with a rhapsodic Irish feeling about it. This was its first performance in New \Zealand, and it was done in such an. incisive clear-cut style, and with such an exciting verve in the performance, that I wished we could have had it again, there and then. The programme notes were, I thought, particularly good — neither over-fulsome nor too long.
