      Ooops! I see Cockney Sparrow not only mentioned this in regenerating this Thread, but also spelt "nominated" correctly. I thought I'd seen it mentioned before! My apologies. )

        I was previously unaware that Howells composed a Piano Quartet. It was the second work in a concert which I attended this afternoon, and all I can say is that it's a long time since a work has impressed me so much on first hearing. The other works on the programme were Mozart K478 and Dvorak's Piano Quartet - a wonderful way to spend a couple of hours on a Sunday afternoon!
        Wob (formerly World of Books) have 1 copy of the Naxos recording of the Howells left, which I've just ordered.
