Though known nowadays for his considerable corpus of church music, Harold Darke's earlier years saw a proliferation of compositions for many and varied forces, a result of his fruitful study at the Royal College of Music.
Written towards the end of 1908, these virtuosic Three Concert Studies stand as happy advocates of the Post-Romanticism then in vogue.
This edition marks their first publication and contains a brief background on the work's composition as well as a full list of editorial changes. These Three Concert Studies certainly deserve to be more widely known and enjoyed.
