This arrangement for organ solo of Pezzo Ostinato by Ralph Vaughan Williams (pictured) is to be featured on a new CD - Vaughan Williams: Serenade, released by Albion Records (UK) on October 12th 2022, RVW’s birthday. Preview here.
‘Birthday Gifts’ was discovered among the composers papers and the music serves to extend the idioms of his major works to the intimate world of the keyboard.
