Ralph VAUGHAN WILLIAMS: Oboe Concerto in A minor

My favourite composer of all time! He encompasses everything that is related to this Sceptred Isle. He transcends time and space with his ethereal pieces of pure genius and evokes such feelings of nostalgia for a time that once was and will never be again. “This royal throne of kings, this sceptered isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise, This fortress built by Nature for herself Against infection and the hand of war, This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in the silver sea, Which serves it in the office of a wall Or as a moat defensive to a house, Against the envy of less happier lands,--This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.” William Shakespeare

It is that piece of England that is no more, that place just around the corner, yet out of reach. Occasionally when visiting those small country towns you can sometimes feel it’s echo in quiet corners. It’s place of less urgency of peace and true goodwill.

Well said mate, quite accurate really 😊

[@jackarcher7495]

I was in attendance a year or so ago for a performance of the Vaughan Williams Oboe Concerto by the Cleveland Orchestra, with Sir Andrew Davis conducting and the CO's Principal Oboe, Frank Rosenwein, soloist. While I thought I was pretty familiar with RVW's music, I didn't know this piece at all, and fell in love with it that night. I bought a recording of it within days, and have played it often. A thank you to the Cleveland Orchestra for introducing it to me, and to Maestro Davis, Mr. Rosenwein, and the players for making it unforgettable.

I am not musical, was not brought up with classical music, and never listened to it. I decided I had to introduce myself to it, and this was the first CD I randomly purchased (never heard of VW either). I thank god I did, as it instilled, not just an appreciation, but awe. I now have quite a wide ranging collection. I often think that had my young self not got this first but got the second CD I randomly chose, I would never have pursued it any further. The second CD was Webern - which baffled and bored me. I still cannot 'get' that to this day

[@malcolmosman6111]

Webern was a very brave choice - even for classical music enthusiasts!

[@honeychurchgipsy6]

John Smith - I came at classical music as an adult too - although I do remember being played Fingal's Cave (by Mendelssohn I think - Hebridean Suite ?) by my headmaster at primary school and listening to Peter and the Wolf too. But it was a crappy hit single in the 1980's - Hooked on Classics - which really lit my enthusiasm. I bought every track on the single and have never looked back. If you like VW do you also like George Butterworth and Malcolm Arnold? You might try Lennox Berkeley - his Sonatina for treble recorder is wonderful although it is often played on flute it was written for recorder. Jill Kemp has recorded it and also Dan Laurin (two superlative recorder players)

[@mtrainier68]

I learned about the joys of classical music while driving to a mountain rescue operation with a friend. He had a cassette copy of "The Planets'. I was hooked for life. When I learned of the vast works of RVW I was in Heaven.

[@DavidA-ps1qr]

Dear John, Wow, what a new world you could be opening up. VW is a fantastic start but there is literally an ocean of music out there. The Webern was a mistake at this stage though. Please, please listen to Gustav Holst's Planets Suite. That's what started me off many years ago and I never looked back. I wish you years and years of enjoyment. P.S. I now have over 15,000 pieces of classical music in my library, from medieval to current day.

[@TempoTigerhound]

@Colin. I'm an architect and an amateur composer. Hence, when at the composing keyboard [the piano's, that is] my imagination fills with visual images: sometimes abstract, sometimes realistic, sometimes dream-like, usually a combination, stimulated by the music. I believe all composers must be harbouring some kind of brain imagery while composing, parallel to the technical musical requisites. These images may even be sub-conscious; in any event, the listener can never guess what they may have been. Notwithstanding this enigma, I wish to compliment you on your choice of imagery that accompanies this, and so many of your Your Tube posts. The scenes you choose capture the music's moods gloriously, and greatly enhance its expression. Thank you.

[@lenteach]

I couldn't agree more with your statement. but not all music lends itself to escape from human existence. especially modern music,which I find to be very stressful and unpleasant. Mozart is,in my opinion,the height of the sublime in music.Mozart's own life was full of joy and exhuberance.He epitomizes man's search for perfection and harmony while the music of Stravinsky seems to do the opposite.The Rite of Spring is not aimed at man's better self.It connects to the many conflicts that exist in our troubled souls.So,if you are selective about "music" and choose carefully,you can relieve the storm and stress of human daily conflict and find some solace in your waking hours.Just watch out when you fall asleep and your unconscious and repressed thoughts and feelings comes to the surface.

[@bluejupiter100]

There's lots of 20th century music that is, IMO, sublime and serene, See certain works by Barber Copland David Diamond, Piston, etc. And also more recent composers like Arvo Part and Henryk Gorecki. John Adams' "Simple Tones in Common Time" is a gorgeous contemplative piece and so is "Old and Lost Rivers" by Tobias Picker. If you want a gorgeous piece by Stravinsky that a bit more genteel than Le Sacre, try Pulcinella. Or find your own. I love Mozart, too, but there's lots more there. Peace.

The continuous assault by mainstream media who HATE him with a toxic passion for being an 'outsider' is the real problem. They're repressive hate mongers. Mr. T is a problem solver, plain and simple. He earnestly loves the US. Ask yourself: If you had billions of dollars, a trophy wife, lovely hard-working children, and a dream life, would you quit that to take on the hardest job in America, to be hated and reviled by every news outlet, and ill-mannered liberals? I certainly wouldn't. The elite leftists who control Wash. DC do NOT want problems solved! They want to continue being rich Lords of America to a mass population of ignorant serfs.
