Koanga was the third of Frederick Delius's operas to be completed (in 1897), but the first to be staged (in 1904); it was also the first of his earlier works to achieve the distinction of posthumous publication (in 1935). The long-awaited release of the recent recording, by turning our thoughts anew to this colourful score, provides a suitable occasion to review the earlier history of the work.
