I believe this has been discussed before but just in case , listen to BBC Sounds it has an episode dedicated to the story of its creation and personal tales from families who have in one case a direct link to Elgar

"In a free society, the State is the servant of the people—not the master."

It’s the quiet start, reaching a crescendo before fading out. Never fails to get me .

Why would only a musician appreciate Elgar?

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Good question
First, I didn’t suggest only musicians would
Jon is a musician , so am I . We ve discussed music and it’s contruction

Elgar was a technical master of music which non musicians wouldn’t get because of the theoretical work involved

Good to discuss something anyway with you

A piece of music that genuinely brings me to tears. I don't think there is anything better for remembrance.

Hat's off to Eddie Elgar.

Elgar was a Wolves fan and would cycle to homw games from his little village on the doorstep of Worcester. The Malvern hills provided much if his inspiration and Malvern itself is a little quirky and eccentric.

As were Slade, Robert Plant incidentally once studied Welsh and had a house in Wales I've also had a drink in the Chequers , Cutnall Green where his great mate John Bonham went on a mammoth bender the day before he died.

Bron y Aur - That's the name of the house the group stayed in . Machynlleth is the nearest town. Robert Plant wrote Stairway to Heaven there .
