Logo for Twenty Minutes - Vaughan Williams at the Royal College of Music

To mark 50 years since the death of Ralph Vaughan Williams, Steven Johnson visits the Royal College of Music to investigate the composer's time there. Although Vaughan Williams encountered difficulties there as a student, he eventually found his feet and his many years spent as a professor of composition helped build a considerable legacy.
