Four Fancies for Flute, Violin, Viola and Cello
| DATE WRITTEN | 1976 |
COMMENTS FROM CLASSICAL NOTES
These four miniatures have all the qualities that distinguish the whole of
Jacob's output - fresh, tuneful, and written with absolute understanding of the
colours and characteristics of the four instruments. They're what
Vaughan-Williams would have called "household music" - pieces of
elegant and practical musical craftsmanship, designed to do no more than give
pleasure to listener and performer alike - R G Bratby
