Edited by Graham Parlett

Description

Vaughan Williams began this work - his earliest known piece for a solo instrument with orchestra - in 1896, shortly after returning to the Royal College of Music to study composition with Stanford, and completed it in 1904.

After his death, the manuscript was donated to the British Library, and it was here that the pianist Mark Bebbington rediscovered it in 2010, subsequently recording it for Somm Records.

The work shows influences of late nineteenth-century composers, but also hallmarks of Vaughan Williams's later style and maturity.

As such, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the composer's development, as well as being a powerful work in its own right.

This is its first publication; a study score of the orchestral version is also available on sale. Orchestral material is available on hire/rental.
