Reviews

Alain Frogley's magisterial study of Vaughan Williams's Ninth Symphony is a refreshing addition to this distinguished series ... rigorous, nuanced, and ultimately enlightening. Journal of Musicological Research Alain Frogley's book is a landmark contribution to a steadily growing field of research into Vaughan Williams and his music ... a result of more than fifteen years of meticulous and imaginative research that has come together to form an extended, highly organized study full of immense and telling detail. Music & Letters Vaughan Williams's Ninth Symphony significantly deepens and complicates the traditional picture of a composer now seen as increasingly important. Alain Frogley's knowledge and understanding of the composer in general and of the Ninth Symphony in particular is deeply impressive, and his book is a most welcome addition to the literature.
