As a student he had studied piano. After Charterhouse School he attended the Royal College of Music (RCM) under Charles Villiers Stanford. He read history and music at Trinity College, Cambridge,[3] where his friends and contemporaries included the philosophers G. E. Moore and Bertrand Russell. He then returned to the RCM and studied composition with Hubert Parry, who became a friend. One of his fellow pupils at the RCM was Leopold Stokowski and during 1896 they both studied organ under Sir Walter Parratt. Stokowski later went on to perform six of Vaughan Williams's symphonies for American audiences, making the first recording of the Sixth Symphony in 1949 with the New York Philharmonic, and giving the U.S. premiere of the Ninth Symphony in Carnegie Hall in 1958.
Another friendship made at the RCM, crucial to Vaughan Williams's development as a composer, was with fellow-student Gustav Holst whom he first met in 1895. From that time onwards they spent several 'field days' reading through and offering constructive criticism on each other's works in progress.
Vaughan Williams's composition developed slowly and it was not until he was 30 that the song "Linden Lea" became his first publication. He mixed composition with conducting, lecturing and editing other music, notably that of Henry Purcell and the English Hymnal. He had already taken lessons with Max Bruch in Berlin in 1897 and in 1907--1908 took a big step forward in his orchestral style when he studied for three months in Paris with Maurice Ravel.

Saint-Saens hymn tune from third symphony?
To me it sounded a bit like "To Be A Pilgrim" - John Bunyan's hymn. But that music was written by Vaughan Williams, based on an English folk song. Could the French by poaching English folk songs as well? :-)) * In fact, the organ melody from Saint Saens' 3rd Symphony is not a hymn tune, though Saint-Saens may well have taken a phrase here or there from well-known hymns, and reworked it to make it completely original. The melody was popularised in 1977 as the song "If I Had Words" by Yvonne Keeley and Scott Fitzgerald. The film clip was set in a church, complete with congregation waving their arms, so it may have given the impression it was based on a hymn tune. The only connection to hymns was the use of an organ.
