Description:

Norrington, also a native of England, portrays Elgar, one of the most famous modern British composers, with deep empathy in his orchestral works, which, together with his highly transparent sound with minimal vibrato, bring out the full appeal of his music. Included are Elgar's most popular orchestral work, "Enigma Variations," the thrilling overture "In the Tropics," and the sophisticated "Introduction and Allegro" for string quartet and string ensemble.
