A fantasia for solo cello and orchestra, based on five folk tunes which was first performed by Pablo Casals in 1930. Orchestral material is available on hire/rental.
In this engaging work Vaughan Williams takes advantage of the expressive possibilities of the cello, ranging from wistful and melancholic to lively and jovial. It was composed in 1929 and premiered the following year by its dedicatee, the legendary Spanish cellist Pablo Casals. The five folk songs on which the work is founded are ''Salisbury Plain'', ''The Long Whip'', ''Low down in the broom'', ''Bristol Town'', and ''I''ve been to France''.
