I heard the author of the St Trinnian novels on this week's Desert Island Discs - Ronald Searle. His first chosen piece of music reminded me, when played, that I'd been trying to track down this piece of music since I first heard it.
It was Vaughn Williams' "Fantasia on a Theme". Absolutely lovely piece of music. Now I know what it is, I've downloaded it. The only sources I can find quote "Master and Commander Soundtrack" as their source, which is slightly disappointing to me. I don't want to think that I didn't know this piece until so recently - but I can't remember when I heard it and when it first infiltrated my head.
