Given the overall popularity of Ralph Vaughan Williams' music, especially of his folk-inflected compositions, it may be surprising to learn that the folk song arrangements series inaugurated by this release will contain 57 world premieres. Annotator John Francis (and it is well worth having the physical album here) may have identified the reason with his observation that Vaughan Williams' versions of these songs were, in a way, neither fish nor fowl: neither simple harmonizations nor art songs with a folk basis. They lie somewhere in between, and in point of fact, they're delightful. The commercial success of this release by the nonprofit Ralph Vaughan Williams Society and the Albion label is absolutely no surprise. One attraction is that the project has enlisted three of Britain's top singers, and soprano Mary Bevan, tenor Nicky Spence, and baritone Roderick Williams are all in fine voice. Pianist William Vann has a sense for the proper emphases in the carefully chosen adornments the composer added to each song. However, it's really the songs collected by Vaughan Williams that are the most appealing. Francis adds a good deal of background on each one, on how the composer came to encounter the song, and his observations add up to a little survey of the place of folk song in the English musical universe of Vaughan Williams' time. The topics range from farmworkers to sailors and boats to romances in far-flung lands, and the variety of this living tradition is fully captured. The sound from Henry Wood Hall is a bit spacious for what was really chamber music, but it is clear. Various audiences will eagerly await future releases in the series.
