              <text>Ella Grainger became an expert player of her husband’s compositions using the bells and steel marimba, under Percy’s tutelage, despite having no formal musical training. She played the bells on tours across America in the period 1929-33, and in Australia and New Zealand in 1934-35.  In this painting she is wearing one of the items of towel clothing that she and Percy created in the 1930s (see object accession number 04.5382)</text>
