It might seem surprising that there still remains unrecorded music by Ralph Vaughan Williams at this late date, but indeed all 22 of these tracks (or all but one) represent the first time the music therein has been committed to recorded sound. They're not unknown masterpieces; most are small, strophic hymn-like pieces or folk song arrangements, accompanied by piano or organ, or sung a cappella. Yet they form a cohesive whole, which is more than can be claimed for many more ambitious releases. The pieces are arranged chronologically and proceed through stages of simple settings of poetry, folk song settings (among which is included Stephen Foster's The Old Folks at Home: even though this is not a folk song, Vaughan Williams encountered it as one, on the front during World War I), simple but heartfelt religious pieces from the 1920s (this despite the composer's confirmed atheism), patriotic works from World War II, and Scottish-flavored works from late in the composer's career. The music is beautifully sung by the Chapel Choir of the Royal Hospital Chelsea under William Vann, a group of about 20 that makes room for the individuality of the singers. This not a major musical statement, but Vaughan Williams fans may well find they have to have it, and there are several works (Little Cloister or the indefinably un-American Old Folks at Home) that would enliven any choral concert.

Chronique
It might seem surprising that there still remains unrecorded music by Ralph Vaughan Williams at this late date, but indeed all 22 of these tracks (or all but one) represent the first time the music therein has been committed to recorded sound. They're not unknown masterpieces; most are small, strophic hymn-like pieces or folk song arrangements, accompanied by piano or organ, or sung a cappella.
