Plans for this recital began as a comparison of the extent to which folk music influenced the music of Ralph Vaughan Williams and that of his contemporary and friend, Percy Grainger. The album begins with the first complete recording by a woman of Vaughan Williams's cycle of nine songs: Songs of Travel.
There is ample historical evidence for women both singing and recording these songs, from Ada Crossley under Sir Henry Wood in 1910 to later singers such as Dame Janet Baker, but the cycle has been a male preserve until now. We are proud to present Kathryn Rudge's pioneering recording, accompanied by the Australian pianist Penelope Thwaites.
Alessandro Fisher sings three songs from Vaughan Williams's operas. We then hear two songs from Vaughan Williams's former pupil, Peggy Glanville-Hicks (another Australian) and two from John Raynor - a composer for whom Vaughan Williams once sponsored a concert, but whose music has not been recorded until now.
