Vaughan Williams A Sea Symphony The Waves

Uploaded by TheClassicalFun on Jul 8, 2009
A Sea Symphony is a choral symphony by Ralph Vaughan Williams, written between 1903 and 1909. Vaughan Williams's first and longest symphony, it was first performed at the Leeds Festival in 1910, with the composer conducting. The symphony's maturity belies the composer's relative youth when it was written (he was 30 when he first began sketching it). One of the first symphonies in which a choir is used throughout the work and is an integral part of the musical texture, A Sea Symphony helped set the stage for a new era of symphonic and choral music in England during the first half of the 20th century. The work is sometimes referred to as the Symphony No. 1.

musica favolosa ed evocativa. Dire che è un CAPOLAVORO è dire poco!!!
-
It's just completely bewildering...
...that even among the greatest admirers of Vaughan Williams, this is, at best, called "impressive" or "epic". This work is so much more than that... it's a brilliant masterpiece, and one of Vaughan Williams' greatest creations!
-
VW and his rare friend, G. Butterworth had many parallel music thoughts--VW perhaps more symphonic and outgoing but still with a pastoral core, as here (which Butterworth no doubt heard)
