Elgar (b.1857)

Gloria
The Music Makers |
| Two
twentieth-century masterpieces by two self-taught composers
are here placed in contrast. A mature work, Poulenc's Gloria
evinces all of his most characteristic bitter-sweet lyricism
and sardonic wit. The Music Makers, written at the end
of Elgar's most creative period, sums up much of his previous
music, and includes references to Enigma, Geronitius,
the two symphonies and other works. Review |

Haydn
|
The
Seasons |
| This
masterpiece of Haydn's old age followed the great success of
The Creation, itself inspired by the oratorios of Handel. Although
the libretto was based on James Thompson's famous poem of the
same name, the work really creates a picture of Austrian rural
life with which Haydn was so familiar. It evokes the changing
seasons in nature and in human activity in a series of brilliantly
depicted, amusing and sometimes profoundly moving tableaux.
