Music reviews of Vaughan Williams: The Collector's Edition [Box Set]Music Review: Great value as an introduction Rating: 4 StarsIf you don't know much of Vaughan Williams this is a great way to find out which pieces you like, but you may then want to move on to better recordings. Many of these have less than good sound quality;for example, some of the choral works sound mushy and indistinct.
