Leopold Stokowski conducted most of Vaughan Williams's symphonies in his long career but this 1943 broadcast of the 4th Symphony represented the only occasion when he played this particular work. It is the earliest non-British performance of Vaughan Williams's 4th Symphony on record and is played by the NBC Symphony Orchestra. We hear the first movement "Allegro" from the Cala Records release (CACD0528).
