Symphony no. 2

Album by Edward Elgar & Philharmonia Orchestra & Giuseppe Sinopoli

Symphony No. 2 is the second symphony by English composer Edward Elgar, completed and premiered in 1911. The work exemplifies Elgar's late-Romantic orchestral style, with expansive lyrical themes, rich orchestration and shifting moods that move between pastoral calm and turbulent climaxes, and it represents a substantial large-scale orchestral statement in his later career.
