There is a video available in the U.S. I have it and it is excellent.

This year is the 50th anniversary of Vaughan Williams's death. There are many activities this year, including that the Philharmonia is playing all nine of his symphonies.

They are playing six of them in London during one week in November. I already have tickets. The trip is my wife's present to me for my 50th birthday.
