Description

A superb gateway into English pastoral music, anchored by Sir Adrian Boult — the definitive Vaughan Williams conductor who knew the composer personally. Decca's premium engineering showcases top-tier repertoire including The Lark Ascending, one of Britain's most beloved works, with Sir Neville Marriner and the Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields adding their characteristic elegance alongside the period-instrument colour of the New Queen's Hall Orchestra.
