Taking his cue from the complex Romantic harmonies of composers such as Richard Wagner, Elgar developed these sounds, adding a personal sense of zest and richness of melody. The orchestration of his pieces was thick but not excessive, creating a myriad of new tonal textures with novel instrument combinations. His most famous work was the lively <I>Pomp and Circumstance</I>, which established his popularity at home and abroad. Elgar mastered many forms, from his melancholic <i>Cello Concerto</i> to the choral oratorios <I>Dream of Gerontius</I>. - Jessy TerryRomanticen720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 22:50:30 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.14604&rws=%2Fedward-elgar%2Ftop-tracks.rss In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, Sir Edward Elgar was important in establishing a voice for English classical music.
