5.0 out of 5 stars Vaughan Williams: Vocal Works, 23 Jul 2003

By A Customer

This is a splendid disc! The Serenade to Music is performed in its original version for soloists which is quite different (better?) than the subsequent choral version. The soloists present a marvellous account and the orchestral textures provide a ravishing counterpoint. Of particular note is the violin solo at the beginning which ably sets the scene for this account.
The Mystical Songs (text by George Herbert) are wonderfully sung by Thomas Allen and yet again are accompanied with great sensitivity and skill. The orchestral texture in Love bade me welcome is particularly fine as is Allen's performance which captures the tentative steps of the narrator into relationship with the Divine with an understated passion.
Nabuko Imai's Viola Solo at the beginning of Flos Campi is also worthy of note and sets the essentially 'Pastoral' feel of the piece although the anonymous Oboe solo is also wonderfully executed.
Lastly, the fantasy on Christmas Carols is well worth listening to and forms the very pleasant end to a marvellous disk. No enthusiast of English music should be without it!
