These pieces were originally piano duets, written with one easy part for my wife to play, and presented to her on various anniversary occasions in the 1960s. This orchestral suite was arranged for the 1965 Cambridge Summer Music School, and first performed there by the school’s orchestra. The translation from piano to orchestral sounds makes many opportunities for variety of colours and for real sostenuto. But while orchestral sound is bound to be very different, I have attempted in the Trio of the Mexicana to capture something of the effect of the piano’s harmonic resonance to provide sustaining echoes of the oboe’s tune.

The manuscript of String Quartet No. 6 in G major bears the date 31st September, 1927, indicating it was most likely composed in Sydney. Its nickname The Kids refers to the fact that Hill was at the time Professor of Composition at the New South Wales Conservatorium of Music and intended this work to be performed by students. While it is relatively simple in both its construction and playability, it is nevertheless a most attractive work set in an earlier style, at times Schubertian, at other times Haydnesque, yet one cannot escape the unique mannerisms of Hill. The slow movement with its simple repeated chords accompanying a series of scale-like motives produces a surprisingly beautiful result, not unlike the music of Greig.
