Lord Berners' compositions, often satirical in intention, include ballets for Diaghilev and for Sadler's Wells. While his first ballet, The Triumph of Neptune, is an ambitious and inventive example of his art (Naxos 8.555222), the choral ballet A Wedding Bouquet is Berners' most original and successful work, if somewhat influenced by Stravinsky's Les Noces. Written to a text by Gertrude Stein and choreographed by Frederick Ashton, this is music full of vivacity, festive brilliance and pathos. Set in a freak show pavilion, Luna Park is a 'fantastic ballet in one act', succinctly scored and wittily characterized.
