 Speaking of Vaughan Williams, a pair of excellent documentaries aired the other night on BBC4 and are available on iPlayer now. There's The Lark Ascending which features a full performance of the original violin and piano arrangement. And there's The Passions of Vaughan Williams which is more of a biography of the man himself.

 Vaughan Williams again, his Six Studies in English Folksong (although originally for the cello) sounds at its best when performed by a clarinet.
