Here are two of Grainger’s most poetic and richly textured inspirations. The first "Early One Morning," begins with a rather somber setting in minor key, abruptly changing to the sunnier mood of the major, featuring several different solo voices. The second "Six Dukes Went A-Fishin’," is serene and gentle, making effective use of contrasting colors and textures.
