Like many English composers, Herbert Howells was drawn to the sound of stringed instruments. He recounted the time when Elgar had talked earnestly to him in the cloisters of Gloucester Cathedral about the nature of writing for string orchestra. His advice to the young Howells was to 'study George Frederick Handel, now and all your life'.
