VW’s Symphony No 5 is a serene and contemplative work, often called the “Celestial City,” completed in 1943 during World War II, which offers a pastoral and mysterious sound world that contrasts with the previous Fourth Symphony.
Walton’s Crown Imperial, a grand orchestral march from the 1937 coronation of King George VI, is a staple of British state occasions.
Elgar’s Cello Concerto is a deeply personal and elegiac work written after World War I, in contrast with his earlier, more bombastic style.
