Remarks:
The popular overture from Vaughan Williams's incidental music for Aristophanes's 'The Wasps' introduces a suite whose mischievously witty, noble and farcical movements underline the play's satire of the Athenian legal system. A similar vivacity characterizes his 'English Folksong Suite' and 'The Running Set', where Vaughan Williams relishes setting tunes such as 'Barrack Hill', 'Irish Reel', 'The Blackthorn Stick' and 'Cock o' the North'. Folksong-like melodies also feature in his magnificent Piano Concerto, in which the magisterial influence of Bach and Busoni may also be heard.Reviews
