Vaughan Williams wrote his Symphony No. 8 between 1953 and 1955,
when he was in his eighties. It is his shortest symphony, and is
considered by many to be his least serious. Aside from a few sombre
moments, the symphony is optimistic in mood and displays Vaughan
Williams's love for exotic and colourful combinations of
instruments, with a percussion sections that, he said, employs 'all
the 'phones and 'spiels known to the composer'. For this newly
engraved edition, editor David Lloyd-Jones has consulted all extant
sources and materials to create a score matching the composer's
intentions. The full score is completed with Textual Notes and
Preface, and accompanying orchestral parts are available on hire.
