Vaughan Williams’ poignantly beautiful ballad opera was written just before the First World War, with the final touches added on the composer’s return from war. It opens with a huge fair scene, with various chorus members taking step-out roles as salespeople (a cheap jack, wearing a costume laden with watches, a shellfish seller, a ballad seller and a primrose seller among them), singing market cries that Vaughan Williams had collected on his journeys in England gathering folk melodies while they were still in the public memory.

.

The costumes gave an impoverished, bedraggled look to the chorus of Cotswold villagers. Into their midst arrived a posse of child morris dancers, and a showman offering money for a prize fight: the latter meant setting up a boxing ring during involved chorus music, for the fight between John the Butcher and Hugh the Drover. Fortuitously one of our chorus members, Richard Bennett, had been an army boxing champion and was able to choreograph the fight quite brilliantly.
