Two Partsongs

‘Ralph Vaughan Williams” settings of Shakespeare”s Sonnet 71 and Ben Johnson”s Echo”s Lament for Narcissus are here published for the first time, and present a fascinating insight into the early development of one of Britain”s greatest 20th Century composers. Written when Vaughan Williams was a student at the Royal College of Music, studying under Charles Stanford, the two songs are an excellent and contrasted pair – the first addressing genuine mourning; the second a delightful madrigalian parody – and both make important and exciting additions to the choral repertory.

Arranged for unaccompanied SATB choir.
