Album by Edward Elgar & Academy of St Martin in the Fields & Sir Neville Marriner

Symphony No. 1 / In the South (Alassio) is a collection of orchestral works by the English composer Edward Elgar, dating from 1903–1908. The music is rooted in late-Romantic orchestration with sweeping melodies, dramatic contrasts and expansive symphonic architecture, and it marks a key moment in Elgar's career as he established a distinctive British orchestral voice in the early 20th century.
