Kissing her Hair
Following hot on the heels of 'The Sky Shall be Our
Roof', Kissing
Her Hair is the second offering from Albion
Records, the
RVW Society
subsidiary dedicated to the recording of English music. Kissing
Her Hair, is a collection of early Vaughan Williams songs. One, Rondel,
from which the title is gained, is unpublished and unrecorded; it is serenely
beautiful and is as it was written when the composer was only 22. It will change
perceptions of the quality of music Vaughan Williams was composing at this
early age.
Sarah Fox, soprano • Juliette
Pochin, mezzo-soprano, Andrew Staples,

Roderick Williams, baritone • Ian
Burnside, piano.
