Four Tunes from the Scottish Island of Sanday-Start Point is a collection of four tunes written for the Sanday Fiddle Club. First performed in their entirety in 2006 at the St Magnus Festival the names of the tunes are names of places on the Orkney Islands. Evocative and unassuming the appealing character and flexibility of these works reflects their genesis. They are suited to a variety of purposes and could be played by both string quartet and string ensemble. Accessible by standard and style to the extent that they are rooted in the community they form an illustration of Maxwell Davies' engagement with his locality where he has lived since the 1970s.

This is - so far - the earliest composition by Davies to be available for performance and mighty interesting it is. Written while he was still a young student it provides a candid glimpse of the thing that concerned him: howmusic could be both forward-moving in the classical Western sense (this is after all a piece for a wholly conventional medium) and repetitive in the manner of the Indian and medieval music in which he was interested. Whatresults is a singular machine geared to an intermittent ostinato in the first violin.This movement for string quartet was first performed by the Arditti Quartet in May 1983 as part of the 40th Anniversary Gala concert of theSociety for the Promotion of New Music at the Barbican Hall London.Score (miniature). Duration c. 5mins.

This work was a test piece for the International string Quartet competition in 2005 Premio Paulo Borciani It was inspired by a keyboard piece of the same name A Sad Paven for these Distracted Tymes by Thomas Tomkins(1572-1656). Tomkins had a long association with Worcester Cathedral where he was organist - appointed magister choristarum in 1596 - and lived within the precincts until shortly before his death. At the same time he wasorganist of the Chapel Royal. When the city of Worcester surrendered to Cromwell's parliamentary forces in 1646 Tomkins had to watch the hasty dismantling of his cathedral organ and the abolition of all choral services. Thesewere the 'distracted tymes' of the 'sad paven' which he wrote in enforced retirement at Worcester.
