              This weekend, those cut down in or as a result of war spring to the front of the mind - George Butterworth, Jehan Alain, Ivor Gurney, Erwin Schulhoff, Pavel Haas...

              "...the isle is full of noises,
              Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
              Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
              Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
