On April 26 between 4 and 8 pm, Tuesday Classics host David Schonfeld will feature Ralph Vaughan Williams's Hugh the Drover, a Romantic Ballad Opera in Two Acts. This work occupied the composer from 1910 to 1914 but he kept revising it until 1956. He was very fond of the score and with good reason. It has memorable tunes and a thumping good plot. It's a story of springtime, love, and freedom, with a happy ending.
