Vaughan Williams Symphonies Nos 4, 5 and 6
Part of Andrew Manze鈥檚 extraordinary re-evaluation of the complete Vaughan Williams's symphonies with the 成人快手 Scottish Symphony Orchestra.
In 2020, 成人快手 Radio 3 is bringing together musical greats, from the past and the present, in one extraordinary Proms season. Radio 3 is broadcasting the best of four decades of unmissable Proms concerts. At the 2012 season Andrew Manze tackled three very different, powerful symphonies by Vaughan Williams which, whatever their own emotional back-stories, may still be seen as chronicling our national life in troubled times. While he was Associate Guest Conductor of the 成人快手 Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Manze conducted all nine Vaughan Williams symphonies, commenting: "Vaughan Williams is one of those composers some people have fixed ideas about鈥� I鈥檓 on a bit of a mission to rehabilitate him in people鈥檚 minds as an important figure in the music-making of this country".
