Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
Vaughan Williams’s middle symphonies nos. 4 and 5 are often seen as two opposing poles, as extensions of the composer’s double character. Between the pivot of “Englishness” on the one hand and New Music on the other, the two symphonies also toy with the tensions between new and old, German and English, and not least modernism and romanticism. Through analysis of their key motives and reception, the chapter offers a reading of both pieces as two facets of one single attempt by Vaughan Williams to respond to contemporary challenges in composition, both at home and in Europe.
