- Norfolk_Rhapsody_No._1 abstract "Norfolk Rhapsody No. 1 in E Minor (1906, rev. 1914) is an orchestral rhapsody by Ralph Vaughan Williams based on folk songs he had collected in the English county of Norfolk, in particular in the port town of King's Lynn and the surrounding region. It is one of a set of three orchestral rhapsodies of 1905–06 based on Norfolk folk songs; Norfolk Rhapsody No. 2 in D minor still exists in a fragmentary form and has been reconstructed by Stephen Hogger, but the third Norfolk Rhapsody is lost.Michael Kennedy suggests that Vaughan Williams originally intended the three works to be performed together as a "Norfolk Symphony", although notes that this never occurred. Rhapsody No. 1 was premiered in London in August 1906 conducted by Henry Wood and was later substantially revised for a performance in Bournemouth in May 1914; the second and third rhapsodies were first performed together under the composer's baton at the Cardiff Festival in September 1907 and later in London in April 1912 but were then withdrawn.The three rhapsodies together were originally intended to form a sort of folk-song symphony. The First Rhapsody corresponded to the first movement, beginning with an introduction based on two songs, "The Captain's Apprentice" and "The Bold Young Sailor", followed by the main allegro movement, employing three songs, "A Basket of Eggs", "On Board a Ninety-eight", and "Ward, the Pirate". The Second Rhapsody combines the second and third movements of the symphony, with the scherzo occurring as an inserted episode of the slow movement. It employs three folk songs, including "Ward, the Pirate", already presented in the First Rhapsody. The Third Rhapsody was the finale, using four tunes formed as a quick march and trio, but was discarded entirely by 1920. Vaughan Williams did not publish the Second Rhapsody, and appears to have withdrawn it at the time of the extensive revision of the First Rhapsody in 1914, reusing some of its material for the Six Studies in English Folk Song (1926). Nevertheless, the manuscript score survived except for the last two pages. The missing ending was replaced in 2002 by Stephen Hogger for a CD recording by the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Richard Hickox. Although this recording was apparently permitted by the RVW Society on the understanding that it would be a "one-off exhumation", the same orchestra and conductor gave the restored score a public performance at a Musicians' Benevolent Fund Royal Concert at the Barbican Centre in 2004.".
