Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958)
Ralph Vaughan Williams was born early enough to grow up listening to Wagner and Brahms. Yet he lived long enough to witness a complete upheaval in the musical world (not to mention two World Wars): the exploration of entirely new tonal systems, led by Arnold Schoenberg; a revolution in the approach to rhythm, triggered by Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring;" and, later, an avant-garde movement, led by composers like John Cage, which called into question what was meant by the word "music" in the first place. Rather than retreat into inactivity, as Finland's Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) did, Vaughan Williams kept writing, completing five of his nine symphonies after the age of seventy. And, although his style did evolve throughout the years, he maintained his distinctive voice. Compositions from any point of his career have the characteristic Vaughan Williams sound: a clear folk influence, traditional tonal and harmonic language with a slight modal tint, and lush, straightforward orchestration.- Pomona College
