This album is entirely dedicated to Ralph Vaughan Williams symphonies. It includes the London Symphony in its revised version, and the eighth symphony, with its atypical structure and instrumentation, dedicated to Barbirolli and here recorded just a few days after he gave it its premiere in Manchester.
