Text in Catalan by Josep Maria López-Picó. In a letter to Colin Mason, 31 Jan 1962, Gerhard states that the cycle was ‘written in “a go” during the Spring and Summer of 1916’. However, in an interview in 1929, Gerhard said that he composed these songs in 1917 (Girasol, ‘Una conversa amb Robert Gerhard’, La Publicitat, 3 December 1929). The cycle was premiered in June 1917.

The songs performed were 1. La comtessa de Floris, 2. L’escolta, 3. La calàndria, 4. Cançó de lladre, 5. Enemic de les dones, 6. La mort i la donzella, 7. El petit vailet, 8.

Concertino for String Orchestra1929String orchestraArrangement/recomposition of early String Quartet No. 3 (1927–8). Gerhard composed three early string quartets. According to Diego Alonso Tomás the dates for the first two are 1914–17 and early 1920s respectively. However, both were left unfinished and no scores or sketches have survived. The third quartet was composed and completed whilst Gerhard was a student of Schoenberg.
Les vídues vulgars1930Soprano, contralto, and pianoText in Catalan by Josep Carner
La fulla i el núvolc.1930–33Soprano and pianoText in Catalan by Josep Carner. This work has been assigned as early 1930s. However, the manuscript paper of the Cambridge University Library holograph is on French paper on which Gerhard also wrote Soirées de Barcelone (1936–9), suggesting that Gerhard worked on this in 1938 during his time in Paris before moving to Cambridge.

Alegrias de Jerez19412 pianosChoreography by Elsa Brunelleschi for one dancer (Sara Luzita). The title is often prefixed with ‘Spanish Dance’. This piece was incorporated into Divertissement.

Alegrías de Jerez was commissioned in 1941 by the Ballet Rambert. The specification was that the music should be in the flamenco style (see Cambridge University Library, Robert Gerhard Archive, Gerhard.9.113). The Alegrías de Jerez for two pianos was premiered and received several performances throughout 1941 as part of Divertissements, a collection of arrangements for two pianos of traditional music and Exorcism by Fire (Manuel de Falla). The listings of these works in extant programmes interchange Spanish Dances and Divertissements with different collections of pieces being played at each of the 13 performances between May and September 1941. The ballet Flamenco was developed from the music for Divertissements in August-September 1941 (MS.Gerhard.4.19) with the piano score for the performance (MS.Gerhard.4.41) completed in September 1941. However, it was not until 1943 that Elsa Brunelleschi choreographed Flamenco for seven dancers, in which form it received four performances in July–August 1943. Gerhard’s Alegrías suite for orchestra comprised four movements from the previously composed ballet music and was written in 1942 according to Gerhard’s notes (Cambridge University Library, Robert Gerhard Archive, Gerhard.4.40. The holograph score Gerhard.4.40 bears the title Flamenco changed to Alegrías: divertissement flamenco). Alegrías was first performed on 4 April 1944 for a BBC studio recording in London by the BBC Theatre Orchestra, conducted by Stanford Robinson.

Divertissements19412 pianosBallet scenario devised for Sara Luzita. Traditional music arranged by Gerhard (includes the Alegrías de Jerez) and arrangement of music by Manuel de Falla.

Audiomobile No. 3 ‘Sculpture’1960–61Tape, made from recordings of a sculpture by John YoungmanA final Version II may be later (c.1967) as Gerhard continued to work on the series. Audiomobile 1 only appears once in the tape collection. See tape CUL_OR_0361 On the spool is written ‘Audiomobile 1 (Sculpture) full track 15ips’. However, the materials on the tape are multilevel compounds—a term Gerhard used to indicate the final materials that he would use for a work but before the final assembly—and appear to be recorded at 7.5ips. Although an edited version of this was released (See Roberto Gerhard, Electronic Explorations from his Studio + The BBC Radiophonic Workshop, (Sub Rosa, Belgium, SR378), 2014.) it cannot be considered in the catalogue of Gerhard’s completed works.
