Composer of the Week

Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958), The Stage Works - A Masterpiece and a Problem Opera

Donald Macleod continues his survey of the stage works of Vaughan Williams, with an astonishingly bleak and intense one-act opera based on a play by J.M Synge, and a less successful "romantic extravaganza".
