 In 1921 he gave two recitals in the Aeolian Hall in March and April, which included his transcription of Debussy's "Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune" (originally premiered for him by Mark Hambourg).In almost the same week George Copeland played his own transcription of the same piece.A critic found Borwick's version 'complicated and cold', though it is still much admired.
