The accompaniment was originally for string quartet. Stanley published an article on the concerto (Julian Bream has peformed it) and how he made a reconstruction of the lost string parts: "Ernest Shand's _Premier Concerto pour Guitar, Op. 48_" _*Soundboard*_ 24/3 (Winter 1998): 9-17.
Ernest Shand was a popular music hall performer and his career ended when a disgruntled member of the audience attacked him because he did not care for the sentiments in a patriotic air Shand had just performed. Much of Shand's output consists of popular music hall songs, such as, "I want to meet the Kaiser," "Little Mary," etc., although the excerpts that Yates publishes show him to be a skilled composer. Stanley Yates thinks the Shand Concerto is a major chamber work for guitar. Stanley Yares also has an edition of Shand's solo guitar music publ.
