Title NamePastoral Symphony (Symphony No. 3)
Marketing CopyCompleted in 1922, Ralph Vaughan Williams' (1872-1958) inspiration for his PASTORAL SYMPHONY (SYMPHONY No. 3) came during World War I after hearing a bugler practicing and accidentally playing an interval of a seventh instead of an octave. Though this symphony is the least performed of Vaughan Williams, it has gained the reputation of being a subtly beautiful elegy for the dead of World War I and a meditation on the sounds of peace. It premiered in London on January 26, 1922 with Adrian Boult conducting. Reprint edition.
