A tour de force for any cellist, Elgar's magnificent Cello Concerto is performed more frequently than any other except that of Dvorák. Regarded as an elegy for a lost world, the Cello Concerto was written after the composer's lengthy creative stagnation during World War I. Melodic and evocative, it exhibits a remarkable scope, ranging from tragic passion to buoyant optimism. Cellists and other music lovers will delight in this full score of Elgar's last major work, reproduced from an authoritative source.
