The Pilgrim's Progress è un'opera di Ralph Vaughan Williams, basata sull'allegoria di John Bunyan Il pellegrinaggio del cristiano. Lo stesso compositore ha descritto l'opera come una "Morale" piuttosto che un'opera. Voleva però che il lavoro fosse eseguito sul palcoscenico, piuttosto che in una chiesa o in una cattedrale. Lo stesso Vaughan Williams preparò il libretto, con interpolazioni della Bibbia e anche testi della sua seconda moglie, Ursula Wood. Le sue modifiche alla storia includevano l'alterazione del nome del personaggio centrale da "cristiano" a "pellegrino", in modo da universalizzare il messaggio spirituale. rdf:langString

rdf:langString The Pilgrim's Progress is an opera by Ralph Vaughan Williams, based on John Bunyan's 1678 allegory The Pilgrim's Progress.

Vaughan Williams himself prepared the libretto, with interpolations from the Bible and also text from his second wife, Ursula Wood. His changes to the story included altering the name of the central character from 'Christian' to 'Pilgrim', so as to universalise the spiritual message. The musical gestation of this opera was protracted, and was reflected in a number of musical projects in Vaughan Williams' life. For example, his earlier one-act opera The Shepherds of the Delectable Mountains from 1921 was incorporated into Act 4, Scene 2 of the later opera. His Symphony No. 5 also made use of themes originally conceived for his John Bunyan project. In 1940 he wrote a motet on Mr. Valiant-for-Truth's speech for mixed chorus. The BBC commissioned Vaughan Williams for incidental music for a 1942 radio dramatisation of The Pilgrim's Progress. Herbert Murrill has characterised the opera as "summarizing in three hours virtually the whole creative output of a great composer". The opera contains forty-one individual singing roles. The first performance was at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden on 26 April 1951. The conductor was Leonard Hancock, whom Vaughan Williams had personally chosen to conduct the premiere, and the director Nevill Coghill.
