Description

Elgar: The Man by Michael De-La-Noy. 'Edward Elgar, England's greatest Romantic composer, is inevitably associated in the minds of most people with the 'enigmatic' element in his life and in his most popular work, the Enigma Variations. His love of 'public mysteryfication', as Ernest Newman put it, effectively disguised him from all but his most perceptive friends, and the legacy of myth and misunderstanding that this created, even before his death, has clouded for later generations the truth about the man whose life no less than his music is often taken to epitomize the Edwardian era.'
