Rossini’s William Tell overture is known throughout the world, you might recognise it as the theme
tune to the 1950s TV show The Lone Ranger.
On the day Britain entered WWI, Vaughan Williams was mistaken for a spy strolling along Margate
coast. When he was arrested, his alleged enemy notes turned out to be sketches for The Lark Ascending!
Despite his tragically short life Schubert still became master of the art of song. These five songs are each beautiful notes on life, love, longing and loss.
Beethoven’s Pastoral symphony is one of his most popular, and famously featured in Walt Disney’s 1940 Fantasia.
