Stars of the Night

Complete Songs of Travel, Six Studies in English Folk Song, Three Songs from 'The Pilgrim's Progress', the Violin Concerto and The Lark Ascending

This release from Albion Records highlights both Vaughan Williams's skill in setting English poetry and prose to music and his abiding love of the violin, which he described as his ''musical salvation.'' It features song settings of both John Bunyan and Robert Louis Stevenson performed by baritone Roland Wood alongside familiar and less well-known works for violin, arranged on this occasion for violin and piano and played by Matthew Trusler and Iain Burnside.
