Programme Note

Our series of concerts celebrating Vaughan Williams, in partnership with BBC Radio 3 and BBC New Generation Artists, draws to a glorious close with a performance of 'On Wenlock Edge' and the world premiere of a new work, 'Portraits of the Mind', by Ian Venables, described by Musical Opinion as ‘Britain’s greatest living composer of art songs’. Commissioned by the Ralph Vaughan Williams Society to mark the 150th birthday of Vaughan Williams, 'Portraits of the Mind' is a companion piece scored for the same forces – tenor, string quartet and piano – as 'On Wenlock Edge'.
