It’s rare to hear Vaughan Williams’s original chamber version of The Lark, and although the lack of warm accompanying strings sometimes feels stark, the percussive piano also reveals fresh colours. Park and Grosvenor are sensitive throughout – though the former’s tone is occasionally a tad full-bodied for my taste.
