Elgar - Symphony No. 2 - (2/7)
Allegro vivace e nobilmente (2/2)
As well as paying tribute to Elgar in these videos, we also are paying respect to the fantastic conductor, Sir Edward Downes who died recently. He commited assisted suicide with his wife, Lady Joan Downes, in Switzerland, 10th July 2009. Rest in Peace.
It is a fantastic performance!
