RTim Review: Vaughan Williams Folk Songs - new CD (48) RE: Review: Vaughan Williams Folk Songs - new CD 28 Oct 20


I agree about Vaughan Williams works....I gave a paper at the Mystic Sea Music Symposium a couple of years ago on his Norfolk Rhapsody No. 1.
This piece is made up of 5 of the 70 songs he collected in Kings Lynn, Norfolk in January 1905.
I described and provided as much info. on the singers and Kings Lynn as I could find and sang the 5 songs as they were collected (ie. Unaccompanied voice) and then ended by playing the whole orchestral piece...it is only around 10 minutes long, while showing a video of Victorian Paintings and photos of Norfolk.
But No Tenors or pianos to be seen.
