A giant among composers, Ralph Vaughan Williams has contributed to the literature for concert band music that is standard repertoire throughout the world. Here are works from other genres that were collected, arranged, adapted, and/or harmonized by Vaughan Williams: Forest Green (O Little Town of Bethlehem) (from the first edition of the English Hymnal, 1906), Wassail Song (the fifth of Five English Folk Songs, 1913), and Sussex Carol (the second of Eight English Carols, 1919). These are the works of a master in a stunning new setting by Douglas Wagner. (4:24).
