5.0 out of 5 stars England's Greatest Composer Conducts and Plays His Own Music. 23 April 2011
By J. Gibbons TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
As well as being of enormous historical interest and value, Elgar's electrical recordings of his own music remain amongst the very finest ever made. The technical quality of this reissue is quite amazing and, apart from the mono sound, the listener has to make very few allowances for it. The various orchestras perform to a high standard under Elgar's baton and the, then usual, use of portamento is never distracting and adds greatly to the effectiveness of these performances. Elgar's tempi are much faster than we are used to today but, for example, his readings of the symphonies and Enigma Variations have a rightness about them that is totally convincing.

Almost all of the composers major orchestral works are here together with extracts from Gerontius and The Music Makers recorded 'live' at the Albert Hall and during the Three Choirs Festival in Hereford. Also included are the fascinating piano improvisations Elgar made in 1929 and which, of course, were never intended for commercial release. More than mere doodling, these provide a wonderful and unique insight into his compositional technique.

We hear Elgar's speaking voice during a rehearsal extract from the second symphony and introducing Land of Hope and Glory at the opening of the Abbey Road studios. The final disc ends with some orchestral extracts from Caractacus supervised by Elgar by 'phone from his sick bed a month before his death and both 'Mina' - a charming late piece descriptive of his beloved cairn terrrier and the Coronation March conducted by Landon Ronald - the man who persuaded Elgar to record for the first time in 1914....

5.0 out of 5 stars Unbeatable value 3 Jun 2013
By DJW
Format:MP3 Download|Amazon Verified Purchase
Even includes the voice of the great man on some performances (intro, so doesn't spoil anything.

Tempos have changed over the years and it is good to hear the original less frenetic pace of his major works as conducted by him (particularly Pomp and Circumstance No 1 - the favourite of Prommers)

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Bargain 28 Dec 2012
By Mr. S. J. Turner
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Having visited the Elgar Birthplace Museum and listening to the original recordings I was tempted to buy these recordings of Elgar conducting. I was amazed at the quality of the transfers and found it hard to believe the clarity of the performances. Considering the technology available at the time they were recorded I think the transfers using modern technology brings the performances to life. Anyone who admires Elgar's work would not be disappointed. I prefer some of these recordings to the more modern ones. I would thoroughly recommend this set of CDs.

4.0 out of 5 stars A worthy historical document 9 Aug 2012
By Anything Musical
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This set contains all the recordings that comprised the two LP sets in the vinyl era. A lot of this material sounds brighter on CD and from that point of view, is worth having, even if you already have the LPs. However, EMI could have included MUCH more documentation than appears here. There was a massive quantity of quality documentation with the two LP sets and the three CD sets that comprised the Elgar editions some twenty years ago. This new edition is very cheap, but that does not excuse the rather sketchy booklet, to put it mildly. There is room in the box for a much more informative insert, containing articles and notes that must surely already exist in EMI's archives. Therefore, to omit it, portrays a 'cheapness' that is unbecoming of a notable record company. I shall not be parting with my LPs!

Wonderful to listen to all of his works and to be conscious that he himself is conducting. Pardon the pun, but BLISS.

3.0 out of 5 stars A note of caution 13 July 2011
By Barv
Format:Audio CD
As the other reviewer said - this is certainly a valuable document.

All I'd say is - remember the recordings were originally made in the 20s & 30s, so they are in Mono with a lack of the distinction we're used to today.

I suggest referring to the MP3 examples before committing to the CD Album.
