CHAN 9962
'‘This is, quite simply, a lovely disc … the performances, by the British chamber group The Ambache … are effortlessly idiomatic …’'
Fanfare on CHAN 9972
 
 

 

The Philharmonia Orchestra is mounting the UK's most significant commemoration of the 50th Anniversary of the death of Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958). Under artistic advisor Michael Kennedy and conductor Richard Hickox the series includes choral works and a complete symphony cycle at Southbank Centre's Royal Festival Hall, two semi-staged performances of The Pilgrim's Progress at Sadler's Wells (directed by David Edwards) and concerts in Bedford, Leicester, Chichester, Truro and Tewkesbury.

Soloists include Susan Gritton and Gerald Finley (A Sea Symphony), Anthony Marwood (The Lark Ascending), Lisa Milne (Pastoral Symphony, and Dona nobis pacem) and Alan Opie (Dona nobis pacem). Roderick Williams (The Pilgrim) heads a brilliant cast of singers in The Pilgrim's Progress including Matthew Brook, Neal Davies, Sarah Fox, James Gilchrist, Robert Hayward, Andrew Kennedy, Matthew Rose, Pamela Helen Stephen and Sarah Tynan.

Other resources and events in the Series include Study Days in London, Leicester and Bedford, exploring Vaughan Williams' life and times, pre-concert events and recitals by the Soloists of the Philharmonia.
