Subject: RE: Review: Vaughan Williams Folk Songs - new CD
On Desert Island Discs this morning the guest, Hilary McGrady, asked for The Lark Ascending by Ralph (pronounced 'Ralf') Vaughan Williams, and after an extract had been played the presenter said that it was The Lark Ascending by Ralph (pronounced 'Rafe') Vaughan Williams.
So a fifty-fifty split in this very small sample. When I come to think about it, most would probably just say 'The Lark Ascending by Vaughan Williams'.
