This review is from: The Most Unforgettable Vaughan Williams (Audio CD)

Ralph Vaughan Williams, along with Edward Elgar, may be Britain's most iconic composer. His compositions are the very definition of British music. This album collects Vaughan Williams' best known, best loved works, including the English Folk Song Suite, the soaring Fantasia on a Theme of Thomas Tallis, and The Lark Ascending. Anyone who likes classic English programmatic music will love this collection.
