Ralph Vaughan Williams captured the serenity of the English countryside like no other composer. But he did a lot more than just that, and in this packed anniversary celebration conductor Michael Seal, baritone Roderick Williams and the full CBSO Chorus explore the mystery, the grandeur and the sheer, irrepressible humour of a composer who’s still surprising us, 150 years on.
