Description
Completed in 1922, Ralph Vaughan Williams' (1872-1958) inspiration for his PASTORAL SYMPHONY (SYMPHONY No. 3) came during World War I after hearing a bugler practicing and accidentally playing an interval of a seventh instead of an octave. Though this symphony is the least performed of Vaughan Williams, it has gained the reputation of being a subtly beautiful elegy for the dead of World War I and a meditation on the sounds of peace. It premiered in London on January 26, 1922 with Adrian Boult conducting. Reprint edition. Instrumentation:3(3rd d.Picc).2+EH.3(3rd d.BCl).2: 4:3:2+BTbn.1: Timp.Perc(2): Clst.Hp: Str (9.8.7.6.5 in set): Solo Sop or Ten. Reprint edition. An oversized score is also available from the publisher.
