Edward Elgar - Sir Edward Elgar conducts Elgar (2007)

Andrew Neill writes: “Edward Elgar became an early star of the gramophone and the recordings he made (and supervised) between 1914 and 1934 remain among the great contributions to the recorded repertoire… Elgar was absolutely sure of himself as a conductor of his own works… He never tried to disguise the fact that his own music thrilled and delighted him.” This collection includes such gems as Beatrice Harrison playing the Cello Concerto and Fringes of the Flleet and will be of great interest to collectors.
