Publisher's Synopsis

Symphony for Full Orchestra is a classical music composition by the English composer Edward Elgar. It was first performed in 1908 and is one of Elgar's most famous works. The symphony is divided into four movements, each with its own distinct character and mood. The first movement is marked by a slow and somber melody that builds to a powerful climax. The second movement is a lively scherzo, featuring a playful and energetic theme. The third movement is a slow and introspective adagio, with a hauntingly beautiful melody that is both mournful and uplifting. The final movement is a triumphant allegro, with a majestic theme that builds to a stirring conclusion. Throughout the symphony, Elgar demonstrates his mastery of orchestration, using the full range of instruments to create a rich and complex sound. The Symphony for Full Orchestra is considered a masterpiece of the late Romantic era and a testament to Elgar's skill as a composer.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
