Lilburn's Diversions for String Orchestra (1947) was composed within a few years of the composer's return to New Zealand after studying with Ralph Vaughan Williams at the Royal College of Music in London. At the heart of the work is a love for rural New Zealand, a tribute to the dignity and grace of ordinary people, and a lyrical vision of duty to home. .
