Falstaff. Romance for Bassoon & Orch. Grania & Diarmid Music. Froissart/Andrew Davis, BBC SO by E. Elgar
Elgar considered Falstaff to be amongst his very best works - a view shared by many professional musicians - but after the personal outpourings of the great oratorios, the symphonies and the violin concerto, Falstaff seemed relatively detached and this probably explains its comparative neglect.
The Music Makers, an ode for contralto, chorus and orchestra based on a poem by Arthur O'Shaughnessy (1912).
