Vaughan Williams' work represents the height of English Post-Romanticism after the turn of the century, which was characterized by fervent nationalistic spirit and a corresponding surge of interest in discovering, preserving, and performing traditional folk music. This arrangement includes elements of Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis, A Sea Symphony, Linden Lea, and Overture to The Wasps, all seamlessly intertwined.

Following his incredible success with Divinum Mysterium, composer James Swearingen has created another powerful and expressive setting of a wonderful classic from the past. This time he has selected the music of Ralph Vaughan Williams as his source of inspiration. A written description fails to do justice to this well-crafted work of musical reverence. The music speaks for itself! This has our highest recommendation!

Ralph Vaughan Williams' Heroic Elegy and Triumphal Epilogue was composed in 1901. The Elegy dates from January and the Epilogue towards the end of the year, in early November. After some revision by the composer, both movements were performed by the Leeds Municipal Orchestra, conducted by Vaughan Williams, on the 21st January 1905 and this appears to have been the last performance of the work in the UK. The manuscript surfaced in the US in 1966 and is now in the Beinecke Library of Yale University.
