A tour de force for any cellist, Elgar's magnificent Cello Concerto is performed more frequently than any other except that of Dvorak. Regarded as an elegy for a lost world, the Cello Concerto was written after the composer's lengthy creative stagnation during World War I. Melodic and evocative, it exhibits a remarkable scope, ranging from tragic passion to buoyant optimism. Cellists and other music lovers will delight in this full score of Elgar's last major work, reproduced from an authoritative source.

New, digitally-enhanced reprint of the full score issued by Bossey & Co., London in 1901, the same year Elgar conducted the world premiere of this sparkling concert overture. Subtitled "In London Town," Cockaigne has been an audience favorite ever since. An outstanding value for students, conductors, librarians and Elgar aficionados everywhere.
