About This Document: There are perhaps further similarities with the textural clarity and economical style of both the String Trio and the slightly earlier Sonata for Two Violins, as well as a number of similarities of construction, for instance in the fast coda of the Quartet's first movement and the two-part structure of the second.7 There is also a more general similarity in the almost 'Classical' restraint of tone, suggesting that they may have occupied Moeran during the same period. Britten had used folk songs collected by Moeran as early as 1936, when he wrote the music for Around the village green (a documentary for the Travel and Industrial Development Association), which he described in his diary as 'all arrangements of Folk & traditional tunes (some from Moeran)'.28 Britten to Graham Moeran:29 15th January, 1960 Dear Mr. Moeran, My publishers have passed on a copy of their correspondence with you and your letter to Augeners.3 I should like to say how very grateful I am for the trouble you have tekn [sic], and for this sympathetic letter that you have written.
