Vaughan Williams Serenade on Albion Music

[eschiss1]

Last year, Albion Music released a compilation disc devoted to works of Vaughan Williams, including his Serenade to Music (and so titled) intended to be released as near as possible to the 150th anniversary of his birth- Musicweb gave it a good review here. 
Presto Classical has announced a followup themed disc, this time of historic recordings, including what looks like the premiere (1938) recording of the Serenade, of music by various composers with vocal contributions by the various dedicatees of the Serenade, to be issued on 22 March - see here - that also looks very interesting (ALBCD059, not 053, in this case.) Also a description of it on this page. (Quoting Propermusic.com - "This album - uniquely - comprises 18 newly remastered tracks from 78 rpm records, including the Serenade to Music itself, and one track featuring each of the sixteen named singers, as well as one singer (Keith Falkner) who would have been among their number had he not been abroad at the time.")
Not at the center of our often repertoire-centered approach but possibly, I think, of some real interest.
