The integrity and empathy of the partnership, and the fluid and seemingly spontaneous approach to phrasing, were manifestly evident in their sequence of works by Robert Schumann: the Three Duos (arrangements of keyboard studies and sketches by Howard Ferguson), the Fantasy Pieces Op 73, and the Three Romances Op 94.
Daniel's range of tone colour was remarkable, and his decision to perform the Fantasy Pieces (usually played by clarinet or cello) on the darker oboe d'amore was inspired.
In the hands of Daniel and Drake, the music had eloquence and a compelling inner force: testimony to the original instinct of Howells and ironic indictment of that of Goossens.
