[edit] Sorabji about Bax Symphonic Variations
Sorabji writes in Around Music about Bax Symphonic Variations: "It occasionally reaches a pitch of fantastic and imaginative beauty that Bax touches nowhere else except in The Garden of Fand. It is incontestably one of the finest concerted works of the present day"
[edit] Dates of Knighthoods
He was knighted twice: in 1937 as a knight bachelor, and in 1953 as a KCVO. I'm having trouble finding out the precise dates of the knighthoods. In particular, was the 1953 KCVO a Coronation Honour or a New Years Day honour, or was it made at some other time? JackofOz 02:02, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
