This work, which was written shortly after the Trumpet Sonata and the Five Pieces For Piano, was first performed by Georgina Dobree and the composer at the 1957 Darmstadt Festival. The score was subsequently lost, but was rediscovered by Kevin Corner in 1983. 'This is a dramatic, emphatic and at times extravagant piece. The first movement is a Moderato reaching through wide-flung clarinet lines and keen piano gestures to a great climax near the end. Then comes a quick movement, a kind of demonic scherzo, including a cadenza for the clarinettist. The finale is an Adagio that gradually achieves a sort of simplicity, though not before exceedingly testing times for both players. Duration c. 25mins.

Newspaper advertisements of hotels and music halls announced: 'Boulanger plays today' - Georges Boulanger (1893-1958) was one of themost famous café violinists and band leaders of his time. He performed in Romania, Russia, Dresden, Berlin, London and Brazil and appeared on the screen next to many film stars in the 1930s/1940s. He left about 250 compositions, all of which were inspired by Balkan folklore and light Viennese music. Avant de mourir, written in 1926 and known as My Prayer in English-speaking countries, is one of his greatest hits which was recorded on vinyl by Glenn Miller, Jimmy Dorsey, Ella Fitzgerald, Lionel Hampton, Bert Kaempfert,Gene Krupa, Dean Martin, Roy Orbison, and Engelbert Humperdinck. The version of The Platters from 1956 reached the top of the charts. The wistful piece was often used in films as well.
