    Utterly sublime. Hints of many of Elgar's haunting motifs from other pieces including Enigma Variations and Sea Pictures If you're English this reaches to the very depth of your soul, in an indescribable way. My late dear Mum first introduced me to Elgar, just when Ken Russell was making his brilliant films about great composers, and I remember the scenes (black and white?) on TV of the young Elgar riding over the Malvern hills to the accompaniment of Enigma Variations, in the days when the Beeb was still a great (British) institution. What genius!😢

    Virtually a lost piece. With this grand rendition and the Sarah Connolly version (with the great Sea Pictures), maybe it will risecagain.

    Elgar brings something spine shiveringly spiritual to a poem which is somewhat unpleasant on its own, humanity being whipped on by ambiguous movers and shakers, relieved only by the line about "but on one man it broke a light that shall not depart." I wish Elgar were a light to our contemporary composers blazing trails very few want to go and being rewarded for it by a one wing of a divided establishment.

      This is one of my favourite poems. O' Shaughnessy wrote it when still quite a young man. Whilst I'm not well read, maybe I enjoy it more than you for that reason. These musicians and vocalists do Elgar a great service, because this was by no means one of his best works. So you see I don't believe Elgar quite does O' Shaughnessy's words justice. X

    Elgar a concrétisé dans The Music Makers une oeuvre vraiment très forte profondément influencée par BERLIOZ sans qu'il en paraisse .
    Elgar est un des musiciens qui a élevé au plus haut sommet la créativité musicale bien que sa musique soit appréciée par exemple lors des Prom's de Londres. Il plébiscite autant les foules ignorantes que les fins amateurs..
    Bien que l-on puisse difficilement comparer l'oeuvre de Gabriel Fauré avec celle d'Edwar Elgar, je classe au pinacle ces deux géants du XX°s. Fauré est un peintre génial de l'intime il parle dans des murmures sublimes par ces harmonies fragiles et délicates inoubliables .
    Elgar est un musicien des grandeurs cosmiques . Ici l'enregistrement avec Janet Baker qui projette sa voix pour une dimension à la fois intime et solennelle enrichi l'oeuvre du compositeur par sa grande sensibilité et intelligence musicale.

    Does anyone know which actual performance this is, and who conducted it?
    Just sung the piece this week, and realised what a difficult piece it is to bring off. To get the accuracy you need, and also the flexibility of beat that gives the necessary expression.
