Two Shakespeare settings, with piano accompaniment:

Fear No More the Heat of the Sun (April 1951) (SATB & piano) 1(Cymbeline)

Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind (April 1951) (SATB & piano) 6(As You Like It)

Two Shakespeare settings for unaccompanied choir:

Full Fathom Five (April 1951) (SSAATTBB) 14(The Tempest)

Orpheus with his Lute (n.d.) (SATB) 17(Henry VIII)

Three settings of North Country traditional songs:

Bobbie Shaftoe (April 1951) (SATB unacc.) 20

The Bluebells of Scotland (n.d.) (SATB unacc.) 29

Caller Herrin' (n.d.) (SATB unacc.) 35

The Sea Ritual ( April 1940) (SATB unacc.) 40(George Darley)

I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud (April 1950) (SATB unacc.) 45(Wordsworth)

All but one of the settings for which we have dates come from the early 1950s. From late 1940 to the end of the war, John Sykes had been conscripted into a labour corps (being accepted as a conscientious objector) and wrote very little music. After the war, he returned to Kingswood Schooland began composing again. These settings may have been written with performance at the school in mind, as they are reasonably simple and straightforward – considerably less complex in melody, harmony and structure than the music he had been writing in the 1930s. For “Orpheus “, “Caller Herrin'” and “Bluebells of Scotland” the archives contain several cyclostyled copies, which support this idea.
