Elgar Society London

The London branch of The Elgar Society. Celebrating the life, career and music of Edward Elgar.

[Alison Cornwell @alisoncornwell]

Enjoyed a phenomenal talk at the London Branch of the Elgar Society @ElgarLondon by @annedudleymusic this evening. Topic Elgar’s orchestration and the challenge that she accepted to create a reduced arrangement of Pomp & Circumstance March No 1 for the Proms in 2020.

[Elgar's Birthplace @NTTheFirs]

Who agrees? Elgar is without doubt our favourite composer but picking a favourite piece of his music is a much harder choice. 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

[Wooburn Singers @WooburnSingers]

Fascinating piece by @IainFarrington discussing his #Coronation commission & the day itself!

I’ve signed this important letter about the future of the @BBCSingers in order to give voice to the diverse range of young people who are at the bottom of this fragile choral ecosystem.
