The Elgar Edition: The Complete Electrical Recordings of Sir Edward Elgar
The advent of electrical recording enabled Britain's greatest living composer to crown his career with an Indian summer in the studios. Between 1926 and 1933 Elgar recorded virtually all his major orchestral works, as well as choral excerpts and lighter pieces, in accounts as vital as they are authoritative. Ranging from the Violin Concerto with the young Menuhin to an intriguing set of piano improvisations, the nine CDs of EMI's Gramophone award-winning Edition are collected here for the first time.
