Roger Norrington conducts the London Philharmionic Orchestra in Ralph Vaughan Williams’s ‘Pastoral Symphony’ which was completed and first performed in 1922. Its musical language is influenced by the English folk songs RVW collected in the early 1900s, though no actual songs are quoted in the work. It is one of RVW’s most personal and intimate works and has come to be seen as a ‘requiem’ for those who suffered and died in the Great War of 1914-1918, in which Vaughan Williams served in the Royal Army Medical Corps and, later, as an officer in the Royal Artillery. A DECCA CD, coupled with the majesterial 5th Symphony in D.
