When Sir Hamilton Harty died in 1941, at the age of sixty-one, he had attained fame as a conductor (he directed the Hallé Orchestra from 1920 to 1933) an arranger (of Handel's ' Water Music ' and ' Music for the Royal Fireworks ') and a composer. One of his most outstanding works is the Violin Concerto, which was completed in 1909 and first performed that year at Queen's Hall by Szigeti, with the composer conducting. It belongs to the same world as the music of Elgar (whose Violin Concerto appeared a year later), with ihe difference that Harty, being an Irshman, was strongly influenced by his native folk-music. The Concerto is in three movements. Deryck Cocke
