[+] Pirie, Peter J. "Debussy and English Music." The Musical Times 108 (July 1967): 599-601.
Debussy has had different influences on different English composers. The pointillistic chords of Delius's In a Summer Garden are a French influence. Vaughan Williams's On Wenlock Edge is similar to Ravel's String Quartet, and his Pastoral Symphony will be seen as similar when placed alongside any work of Debussy's. Arnold Bax parodied Vaughan Williams in his Country Tune.
Works: Bax: Country Tune (601); Delius: In a Summer Garden (600); Vaughan Williams: On Wenlock Edge (600); Pastoral Symphony (600).
