Fantasia on a Theme of Thomas Tallis was a landmark work and, over more than 10 years, drew me into the glorious world of the early 20th centry British music - late Victorian-Edwardian-early Elizabethan. A time of great change for the Empire but when British orchestral composition enjoyed a real renaissance. A giant of that time was RVW and this piece owes a lot to a close analysis of the Fantasia and Dives and Lazarus.
