Elgar: Cello Concerto

Elgar's Cello Concerto is one of the best loved of all concertos. It was the last major work he wrote, in 1919, and the first movement contains one of Elgar's best known melodies, indeed one of his own personal favourites. This movement leads straight into a scherzo-like second movement. The Adagio again shows Elgar with his heart on his sleeve, before the exciting Finale brings the work to a close.
