In this glorious programme featuring Elgar's late 1920s and '30s HMV recordings, works include the Falstaff: Symphonic Study in C minor, the charming Nursery Suite (the version presented here recorded in the presence of royalty) and the Cello Concerto in E minor, with Beatrice Harrison as soloist. We are reminded why Elgar was such a force to be reckoned with in twentieth century music.
