The exquisite Serenade to Music of 1938 is a virtuoso piece, but the quality of the music is so high that one is never conscious of artifice because art predominates. Vaughan Williams could always find the aptlryica mood in which to hymn music -- as in the Five Mystical Songs and the 'music in the house' passage from the Pilgrim's Progress -- and in the Serenade he deepens the mood by its nocturnal associations. The work is all silver and moonlight. Harp, clarinet, violin solo and strings create an atmosphere of calm and peace into which the voices enter as mellifluously as in any music there is. Fanfares -- later borrowed for The Pilgrim's Progress -- punctuate the music, there is a touch of humour at 'the man who has no music in himself', but the enchanted mood of the opening returns in D major. What work it is, unique and original. Music is often described as 'glowing'. This Serenade shines, as strongly and clearly as the full moon. There is no doubt that its original form, for its sixteen special singers, was undoubtedly its best. The Serenade to Music was first performed on 5 October 1938 by members of the BBC Symphony, London Symphony, London Philharmonic, and Queen's Hall Orchestras led by the work's dedicatee, Sir Henry Wood. Ralph Vaughan Williams OM (1872 - 1958) was an English composer whose works include operas, ballets, chamber music, secular and religious vocal pieces, and orchestral compositions including nine symphonies, written over nearly fifty years. Strongly influenced by Tudor music and English folk-song, his output marked a decisive break in British music from its German-dominated style of the 19th century. Composers of the generation after Vaughan Williams reacted against his style, which became unfashionable in influential musical circles in the 1960s; diatonic and melodic music such as his was neglected in favour of atonal and other modernist compositions. In the 21st century this neglect has been reversed.
