Ralph Vaughan Williams is one of Britain’s most illustrious composers, and this specially curated selection of works demonstrates the sheer breadth of his achievement. As a major 20th century symphonist he is represented by four of his nine symphonies, all in critically acclaimed recordings (‘A clear top recommendation’ wrote Gramophone of A Sea Symphony). Popular orchestral works such as the celebrated Tallis Fantasia and The Lark Ascending are also included. Vaughan Williams’ chamber works are performed by the Maggini Quartet, his greatest contemporary champions; while the sublime Mass in G minor shows the composer’s high standing in the English choral tradition.Audio from the individual volumes can be found here:[http://8550734 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Symphony No. 2, 'London' / The Wasps Overture https://b2b.naxosusa.com/Release.aspx?id=8550734 8550738 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Symphonies Nos. 5 and 9 https://b2b.naxosusa.com/Release.aspx?id=8550738 8555300 Vaughan Williams: Phantasy Quintet - String Quartets Nos. 1-2 https://b2b.naxosusa.com/Release.aspx?id=8555300 8555867 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Fantasias / Norfolk Rhapsody / In the Fen Country / Concerto Grosso https://b2b.naxosusa.com/Release.aspx?id=8555867 8557059 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Symphony No. 1, "A Sea Symphony" https://b2b.naxosusa.com/Release.aspx?id=8557059 8557798 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Willow-Wood / The Sons of Light / Toward the Unknown Region https://b2b.naxosusa.com/Release.aspx?id=8557798 8572465 Vaughan Williams, R.: Sacred Choral Music https://b2b.naxosusa.com/Release.aspx?id=8572465 8573530 Vaughan Williams: The Lark Ascending https://b2b.naxosusa.com/Release.aspx?id=8573530]8550734 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Symphony No. 2, 'London' / The Wasps Overture8550738 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Symphonies Nos. 5 and 98555300 Vaughan Williams: Phantasy Quintet - String Quartets Nos. 1-28555867 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Fantasias / Norfolk Rhapsody / In the Fen Country / Concerto Grosso8557059 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Symphony No. 1, "A Sea Symphony"8557798 VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Willow-Wood / The Sons of Light / Toward the Unknown Region8572465 Vaughan Williams, R.: Sacred Choral Music8573530 Vaughan Williams: The Lark Ascending
