The Sky Shall be Our Roof
The Society is proud to announce that the first CD from Albion
Records, a
RVW Society
subsidiary dedicated to the recording of English music, has now
been officially released. Entitled The
Sky Shall be Our Roof the CD features 19 rare songs from the operas.
Stephen Connock, Chairman of the Ralph Vaughan Williams Society
writes:
"If these rare songs from the operas of Vaughan Williams
cannot replace the fullness of the operas themselves, they remind us of the
melodic strengths of these works whilst providing alternative musical settings.
Hopefully they will send us, with new love and admiration, back to the originals."
Nine more CDs are planned.
Sarah Fox, soprano • Juliette
Pochin, mezzo-soprano, Andrew Staples,
tenor •
Roderick Williams, baritone • Ian
Burnside, piano.
