This has long been one of my favorite pieces of Delius. I purchased this particular CD to create an intense feeling of peace within my home and garden. I was looking for a CD with more of the quiet and meditative of Delius' music because I love the soft, powdery quality of his melodies. He wrote some rousing pieces, too, but I didn't want those this time. This recording really fits the bill. Currently, I have programmed this CD to run on endless repeat and, I kid you not, it does not disappoint! This and the other included works evoke lovely mental images of beautiful spring days spent in the countryside and, for me, they inspire the beauty I'm currently working to create within my home and garden. If you are searching for this kind of peace, please give this CD a try.
