 Other works produced in this period include a "Caprice and Elegy" for cello and orchestra written for the distinguished British cellist Beatrice Harrison, and a short orchestral piece, "Fantastic Dance", which Delius dedicated to Fenby.The violin sonata incorporates the first, incomprehensible, melody that Delius had attempted to dictate to Fenby before their "modus operandi" had been worked out.Fenby's initial failure to pick up the tune led Delius to the view that "[the] boy is no good ... he cannot even take down a simple melody".
