I'm reviving this thread because I heard the beautiful "Five Variants of Dives and Lazarus" by Ralph Vaughan Williams on the radio this morning. I of course searched the Mudcat discussions (and DT tunes) and realized that I had missed this thread last fall. Now that I've done some reading I have a couple of questions.
1) Anybody got a good RVW source that documents the folksongs he uses in his works?
2) Why is the Kingsfold tune used for so many hymns, but when I looked up "Dives and Lazarus" at the cyber hymnal, it was a completely different tune? (Dilwyn)
