Edward Elgar's cello concerto, his final significant piece, is a well-organized and deeply expressive work. It is not surprising that this piece holds crucial significance in the cello repertoire. Jonathan Del Mar's editorial abilities are evident in the precise positioning of dynamics, articulation, and expression markings.
Edward Elgar's Chanson De Matin, Op. 15, No. 2, and Chanson de Nuit, Op. 15, No. 1, are among his most renowned compositions, arranged here for violin with piano accompaniment.
Elgar's two "chansons" - the dreamy Chanson de nuit and its cheerful counterpart Chanson de matin - are amongst his most popular melodies, often performed together. However, it is somewhat surprising that Elgar had in fact completed the Chanson de nuit as a separate piece in October 1897, only submitting the Chanson de matin eighteen months later. In his letter to publisher Novello, Elgar noted that the second piece "was intended to be a companion to the one you have already." These two evergreen works from the violin repertoire, with moderate technical demands, are presented here using the first editions and with fingering by British violinist and Elgar scholar Rupert Marshall-Luck.
The two "chansons" - the dreamy Chanson de nuit and its cheerful counterpart Chanson de matin - are among Elgar's most popular melodies, much like his Salut d'amour. Sensing the "evergreen" potential of these works, the composer and publisher planned arrangements for various instruments, building on the success of Elgar's earlier piece.
