for SSATB unaccompanied In this sensitive choral arrangement of
'Nimrod' from Elgar's Enigma Variations, Michael Higgins sets the
Eucharistic hymn 'O salutaris Hostia', written by St Thomas Aquinas
for the Feast of Corpus Christi. The familiar melody passes
seamlessly between the voice parts, and Elgar's lush, rich
soundworld is perfectly emulated by the choral textures Higgins has
fashioned.
for SATB unaccompanied Described by Elgar as an elegy for
unaccompanied chorus, this mournful, reverent, and dignified
setting was composed for a service commemorating Queen Victoria on
the anniversary of her death. The text is by Cardinal John Henry
Newman, whose poem The Dream of Gerontius was set by Elgar in one
of his most enduringly popular works.

Edward Elgar's The Dream Of Gerontius is a splendid oratorio for
Mezzo-soprano, Tenor and Bass with Chorus and Orchestra. It is
based on the epic poem, The Dream of Gerontius by John Henry Newman
written in 1865. The original vocal score of Gerontius was actually
printed before Elgar's had even finalised or completed his final
orchestration and as such it was printed without many of the
markings that were added in the later full score. This new edition
brings vocal and full scores into agreement for the first time
having been authentically and effectively edited by Hywel Davies
and Bruce Wood, and also includes helpful notes on the background
to the work as well as an outline of the editorial procedure and
list of sources. This New Novello Choral Edition of the vocal score
with piano reduction of the orchestral material includes a detailed
foreword listing history, sources and editorial proceedure.

and straight-forward publication, the artists are listed
alphabetically, with a summary of their career, notable recordings,
biography and critical appraisal of their recorded legacy. In
addition, four compact discs present a selection of recordings from
69 artists. This package will appeal to enthusiast and scholar
