Radical Re-Thinking of Pomp and Circumstance.......2005-04-25

Sloppy editing kills a great album.......2002-05-15

An outstanding recording of Elgarýs greatest hits.......2000-06-30

Rounding out the disc are five more marches that Elgar wrote for various occasions. These are longer and, with the exception of opus 40, more serious than the first five, but every bit as enjoyable. The Cockaigne Overture, a.k.a. "In London Town," is a whimsical portrayal of the bustling English capital. It belongs to the same family of musical travelogues as Gershwin's An American in Paris and Respighi's Fountains of Rome.

Yehudi Menuhin and the RPO perform these festive pieces with precision and style. The brass and percussion sections are especially good. The digital recording is perfectly balanced.
