Product Description
Synopsis
This biography of Ralph Vaughan Williams, a figure in the "renaissance" of English music, begins by describing his background, his early music and general education, and the musical context in which he grew up. A number of revealing conflicts emerge - between conformity and rebellion, the pastoral and the cosmopolitan, for example - and the author explores the inspiration Vaughan Williams derived both from the New World and from Old England. Throughout the book, the major works are described and analyzed.
