OC ORIGINALS Ralph Vaughan Williams, Composer (R1890)

Ralph Vaughan Williams ‘Noisy’, ‘talking’, ‘playing the fool’ – these are all beaks’ comments on a normal, lively 14-year-old named Ralph Vaughan Williams. They may not have appreciated his singleminded passion for music, but his potential was certainly not lost on Mr George Robinson, Master in Charge of Music and founding Housemaster of Robinites.
