Notes

"Orchestral drafts, passages for which Elgar wrote out a violin part to be played by his friend W H Reed with himself accompanying, and sketches laid out as piano score, all contribute to the rich material which Elgar left behind at his death in 1934." (Note: on the present release, violinist Robert Gibbs plays W H Reed's original violin!) NB all examples are for piano unless otherwise indicated; "Elgar/Payne" indicates orchestral examples from the complete work. This disc is a recording of Elgar's sketches for the 3rd Symphony exactly as written by him. The sketches have then been used to reconstruct the symphony, a premiere recording of which is issued on the accompanying disc, NMC D053, see The Sketches For Symphony No. 3, Elaborated By Anthony Payne. Note: the durations are not listed on the release! Recorded at Potton Hall, Dunwich, Suffolk (UK), on Nov 23-24, 1997. Manufactured in Great Britain
