Letter from Ralph Vaughan Williams to John Mead

Letter No.: VWL5201


24th October, 1951.

When there is so much music to choose from it is difficult to say what is one’s favourite piece. But let me put it this way: If there was only one piece of music in the world and the rest was to be destroyed which would you choose to save? My answer would be the “Cum Sancto” from Bach’s Mass in B Minor.

R Vaughan Williams
