Nothing terribly creative to post today, as I am hard at work pulling together the threads and putting the finishing touches on my report on the Bard Music Festival for October’s Ralph Vaughan Williams Society Journal!

Byron Adams on Vaughan Williams & Bard
I just concluded a lively 40-minute conversation with composer and musicologist Byron Adams, emeritus professor at the University of California, Riverside, and artist-in-residence at this year’s recently-concluded Bard Music Festival.
Byron, an authority on the life and music of Ralph Vaughan Williams, co-edited (with Daniel M. Grimley) the festival’s tie-in book of scholarly essays, “Vaughan Williams and His World,” issued by University of Chicago Press.
I thank him for his time and generosity in sharing a few of his thoughts, in so doing, allowing me a stronger foundation on which to construct an article about the festival for an upcoming edition of the Ralph Vaughan Williams Society Journal.
