CORRECTION: Please note that the orchestra in this performance is the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, not the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, as stated in the opening credits of the video. The film begins and ends with a painting by Sir John Arnesby Brown. The second painting in the sequence is by Albert Julius Olsson and the third is by Robert Gallon. Thereafter, the paintings are all by either Albert Julius Olsson or Norman Wilkinson.

In this world of endless vitriol, it is a welcome relief to immerse oneself in the music of RVW. Thank you.

As other people have said, I've never heard this piece despite having adored RVW's music from my teens. Thanks for adding to my knowledge and giving me twelve minutes of pure bliss. I'm off to buy the CD!

First time I have ever heard this. I was spellbound. A wonderful evocation of the restlessness of the sea. It deserves to be much better known. Thanks a million for uploading it.

I love classical music of all forms ... but there is something about Vaughan Williams that stirs my soul. His music tells the tales in epic fashion, one moment a sense of remembrance and longing, the next a grand homecoming .... a magical journey awaits the listener.

The nostalgic melody of Vaughan Williams fits Japanese emotions

It is incredible that this outstanding piece by Britain's greatest composer was apparently unrecorded until a few years ago, and was unknown until then.

Lovely early piece of RVW. Hearing a composer find his own voice is all kinds of fascinating.

An amazing piece of music. As well as his symphonies this composer accomplished a good deal of short and beautiful examples like this one.

Thanks for the opportunity to hear a work by Vaughan Williams I hadn't heard before. It' s a sad, atmospheric work that touches the spirit and the soul in a short time span, something that RVW did so well.

I went to the Cutty Sark and they have a silentfilm clip of the old sailors with the composistion ' Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Taltis' playing over it. Absoloutley beautiful..It has turned me onto Vaughan Williams, and here I am on KZfaq checking out the rest of his work...what have I been missing !
