Title: Definitive Vaughan Williams Collection at rock bottom price
Review: This collection is an incredible bargain! Many of the recordings in the box are unmatched by any of the competition (Antarctica, Tuba Concerto, Symphony #6 especially). And not a single recording disappoints. The recorded sound is outstanding by any standards.I could not get any interest in Vaughan Williams for years. I remember exploring the EMI Boult recordings in the late 1970s. I was bored, to say the least. Then when RCA reissued these recordings individually in the late 1980s, I bought the Antarctica and gave it a try. I got hooked from there, and bought all of the rest one at a time. I couldn't believe how vibrant, exciting, and enjoyable the performancs were.And for the price, this box is a must for anyone even remotely interested in Vaughan Williams.You get all the symphonies and more, for less than the cost of 2 full price CDs.The booklet is decent also.
