Vaughan William Indian Ink Sheet Music Painting
My hand drawn rendering of Ralph Vaughan Williams Sheet Music Painting.
The great composer’s life and times reflected in two Indian Ink paintings. He was widely read, and heavily influenced by poets and writers
including Shakespeare, Bunyan, Blake and Walt Whitman. The composer never took his privileged background for granted and worked all his life for democratic and egalitarian ideals. He viewed music as being part of everyone’s everyday life, rather than being the preserve of an elite.
He was still composing great music into his 80s. At the age of 85, he was set to supervise the first recording of his Ninth Symphony with Sir Adrian Boult
conducting. But his death on 26 August 1958, the night
before the recording sessions were to begin, prompted the
conductor to announce to the musicians that their
performance would be a memorial to the composer.
