As is generally the case with chamber music works by Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958), the string quartets are no longer the focus of musical attention and his smaller-scale compositions are easily dwarfed by his nine symphonies, rich body of choral music and a number of his individual orchestral works. This relative neglect is unquestionably unjust. The collection on this CD excludes the work Household Music dating from 1940/41 which can alternatively be played on other instruments. The string quartets are widely varied in their individual structure, revealing the composer at three different phases of his life and career.
