He wrote a ballet in which the Flame enchants all the moths in the room except for the most beautiful, Folia, titled The Lure. He also wrote an opera in which the titular character tells a story to reveal the wife's sexual affairs, titled The Wandering Scholar. That same year he wrote a piece for the BBC Military Band, Hammersmith, and two years earlier he wrote A Moorside Suite, but he is better known for a piece inspired by a vacation in Algeria first entitled Oriental Suite and an opera that is based on an episode from the (*) Mahabharata.
