"A little piece of magic - fourteen minutes of perfection" (1001 Classical Recordings You Must Hear Before You Die). In 1938, the founder of the Proms Henry Wood requested from Ralph Vaughan Williams a piece for a London concert to celebrate his golden jubilee as a conductor. Wood contributed the request to showcase sixteen leading soloists of the day; Vaughan Williams chose the text from Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. The classic recording, made just ten days after the premiere with the same exquisite team, brings vividly to life music designed to celebrate the art of singing and music itself. In essence, what really comes across is an act of homage by the soaring singers to the conductor himself.
