“This is the best of me”.
Elgar’s assessment of The Dream of Gerontius expresses as succinctly as any words what he achieved in the writing of this work. The emotional devastation of the lonely Gerontius’s death and his soul’s journey to the afterlife is told in some of the most eloquently moving, sumptuous music you’ll ever hear, as Elgar’s personal reflection on life and death is turned into a universal experience that will move you to tears. A concert that simply must be heard live and is not to be missed.
