Symphony No.3 (Pastoral) Mov.2 - Lento moderato - Ralph Vaughan Williams

Performer: London Philharmonic Orchestra, Sir Adrian Boult
Composer: Ralph Vaughan Williams
"Ralph Vaughan Williams' Symphony No.3, published as A Pastoral Symphony and not numbered until later, was completed in 1922. Vaughan Williams's initial inspiration to write this symphony came during World War I, after hearing a bugler practicing and accidentally playing an interval of a seventh instead of an octave; this ultimately led to the trumpet cadenza in the second movement."
- The works of Ralph Vaughan Williams, Michael Kennedy, p.170
"Where is the horse and the rider...
Where is the horn that was blowing...
They have passed like rain on the mountains...
Like wind in the meadow...
The days have come down in the West...
Behind the hills into shadow..."
- Poem by J.R.R. Tolkien, a fellow soldier during WWI

Great post from V.W, and Tolkien
If they should ask us why we died, tell them because our fathers lied.
