Vaughan Williams had begun collecting folk-songs and carols in 1903.
Many Folk-songs and Carols were collected in the early 1900's by Vaughan Williams and Ella Mary Leather who visited local gypsies in
Herefordshire where together they rescued traditional songs that may well have disappeared forever.
These songs and carols remind us of our childhood and the power and beauty of songs sung by those generations long before our own.
Sung by Derek Welton an Australian Baritone a very much sought after concert artist. Derek has performed at the Barbican, Cadogan Hall,
Royal Albert Hall, The Sage Gateshead, Bridgewater Hall, Symphony Hall, Birmingham and the Wigmore.
Iain Burnside once again accompanies for Albion Records, who enjoys a unique reputation as pianist and broadcaster
