November 30: A Wild Duck Flying (Ambrose Peffer). Song for voice and piano, also broadcast on 9th December 1933 by Barbara Russell with the composer at the piano over 6WF. Written in Perth, WA. Ambrose Peffer was the nom de plume of Mervyn Cooke of Narembeen, WA. In a letter written the following year, Cooke commented on the setting, one point is fairly evident - your attempt to capture the 'atmosphere' of my poem; the dismal wailing note of loneliness & death and I think you have succeeded well. Performance time 2.35 minutes. Unpublished to date. December 3: Hymn to the God of Fate (Ch'u Yuan/Waley). Song for voice and piano; also an orchestral arrangement was prepared. Composed in Perth, WA. Performed at the Osric Fyfe Testimonial Concert with string quintet accompaniment. It was at this concert that Keats met the playwright Paul Furniss, upon hearing Hymn to the God of Fate, said they should write operettas together. Sung by Sydney de Fries in 1936 and by Heddle Nash in 1941. Revised in 1937. Rejected for publication by Cramer & Co, London in 1938. Used by Dorothy Helmrich in 1940. Performance time 1.40 minutes.

Sung by Sydney de Fries and Syd. McEwan. Performance time 2.20 minutes. Rejected for publication by Cramer, London in 1938. The composer's programme notes said, Plucking the Rushes, an anonymous poem of the fourth century. There is little I can say about it. To attempt to point out its charm would be to gild the lily. The words flow gently, whilst the picture conveyed is one of peace, quiet and supreme happiness. Published Publications by Wirripang ,1995. Also arranged for string quartet. April 1: The Fishing Pools (Mackenzie). Also arranged for string quartet. Performance time 2.00 minutes. As yet unpublished. April 10: The Old Clock (Harry Ransom). As happened to Peter Dawson, a number of unknown writers approached my father to set their words and, being of an obliging disposition, when the opportunity presented, this he did. June 2: Goldfish (Mackenzie). Once described in an undated set of Programme Notes as ‘a study in impressionism.' Goldfish was also arranged for string quartet and formed part of a set of quartets which included Plucking the Rushes and The Fishing Pools . Sung by Heddle Nash in 1941. Performance time 1.45 minutes. As yet unpublished September: You Darling You later renamed Cherries Dipped in Snow (Grant Mc Donagh). Rejected for publication by Cramer London in December 1938. Unpublished to date. September 5: The Emperor described as a cycle for voice and piano, lyrics and music in the Chinese Idiom (Mackenzie). Included in the cycle were four songs The Emperors' Palace, Rain, Dancing Girls and The Armies. Rain was rejected by The Oxford University Press in 1937. On one occasion the following comment was made, In a programme of Australian compositions presented from 2FC (February 6) Horace Keats displayed his skill as a song writer …Rain… [was] not as successful, owing to what seemed to me to be a too self-conscious use of the whole tone scale. Dancing Girls was described in a set of undated programme notes as a suite of poems in the Chinese manner, especially written for the composer by Kenneth Mackenzie. The song opens with a flute-like theme in 4ths imposed on a dance rhythm. This theme occurs several times, and then gradually fades away towards the end of the song". The Armies was then prepared as a song with piano accompaniment. It was also arranged for small orchestra of flutes, oboes, clarinets, bassoon, horns, trumpets, trombone, tympani, harp, voice and strings. Rejected for publication by Elkin & Co., London in 1937. Sung by Sydney de Fries and Dorothy Helmrich. Unpublished to date. Circa October: A Song of London (Cyril Scott). Arranged for voices and orchestra.

Powys Mathers, the work consists of three parts: The Bath, Dates Growing, Your Mouth.. Performance time 4 minutes. The work was sent to Oxford University Press, London and was rejected in 1937. In 1935 Percy Grainger borrowed the manuscript, as did Dorothy Helmrich in 1936. August 23: A Vision (Sung Chih Wen translated by Herbert A. Giles). Used by Sydney de Fries in 1936.

May 3: The Fig Tree (Rose Marie Hodgson). A belated letter of consent for use of the words was written in September 1938 and read in part,
Performance time 2.25 to 2.5minutes. As yet unpublished. Kenneth Mackenzie's poem Galleons was set in this year. The date on a copy of the poem is August 30, so it is likely that the song was composed soon after this. From an undated newspaper clipping: In a programme of Australian compositions presented from 2FC, Horace Keats displayed his skill as a song writer. His setting of Kenneth Mackenzie's Galleons admirably caught - and expanded - the mood.. It was rejected for publication by Boosey and Hawkes, London in December.
