Description: | The organ was a formative part of Edward Elgarâ??s musical upbringing, and for a time he was organist at
St Georgeâ??s Catholic Church in Worcester. The symphonic scale and distinctive themes of the First Sonata
contrast with the more liturgical atmosphere of the Vesper Voluntaries, while the rousing Second Sonata is
an arrangement of Elgarâ??s Severn Suite for brass. This album comprises Elgarâ??s original works for organ as
well as the complete arrangements made by the composer himself and those made by four distinguished
contemporary organists. - .. WORKSThe organ was a formative part of Edward Elgar's musical upbringing, and for a time he was organist at St George's Catholic Church in Worcester.
