Work Summary

Elgar, Edward : The Dream of Gerontius, Op. 38

Performers

Composer

Remarks:

Elgar's late masterpiece is an extraordinary work full of drama and passion alongside exquisite music of sublime delicacy. It is a moving expression of the composer's unorthodox religious faith and a poignant reflection on a man's journey through death, depicted in striking writing for choir, orchestra, and soloists.
