Sinfonia antartica
''Sinfonia antartica'' ("Antarctic Symphony") is the Italian title given by the English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams to his seventh symphony.〔Right up till as late as 5 January 1953, nine days before the premiere performance, Vaughan Williams had been wanting to call it ''Sinfonia Antarctica''. In his letter to his amanuensis and assistant Roy Douglas of 5 January he advised he had finally accepted the correct Italian spelling ''Antartica''. See (Roy Douglas, ''Working with Vaughan Williams: Some Newly Discovered Manuscripts'' )〕
== History ==
Vaughan Williams provided the music for the film ''Scott of the Antarctic'' in 1947, and was so inspired by the subject that he incorporated much of the music into a symphony. The piece was begun in 1949, and composition completed in 1952, with a dedication to Ernest Irving.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.rvwsociety.com/workssymph.html )〕 The first performance took place on 14 January 1953 in Manchester with Sir John Barbirolli conducting the Hallé Orchestra; the soprano soloist was Margaret Ritchie. The first American performance was given by Rafael Kubelík and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra on 2 April 1953.
