Ralph Vaughan Williams. Drawing on the BBC archives, Simon Heighes looks at the way in which the music of Vaughan Williams was presented to the listening public during the composer's lifetime, featuring recordings of first performances, including the ninth symphony given by the RPO under Malcolm Sargent in 1958. Vaughan Williams is featured in the new series of BBC Legends CDs available now from music outlets.
