Second Symphony played by the BBC Symphony Orchestra: conductor, Sir Adrian Boult
Elgar's E minor Symphony is a magnificent monument to English music. Not only is its architecture comparable In terms of music to that of one of our great cathedrals, but it expresses the very spirit of England— the proud, Imperialistic England of the first decade of the present century. The music is rich in contrasts of ecstasy, foreboding, tenderness, sorrow, and struggle, and it seems not only to sum up the spirit of its time but to look forward into the future.
