Description: The musical composer of Land of Hope and Glory is often regarded as the quintessential English gentleman but Edward Elgars image of hearty nobility was a facade. In reality, the son of a shopkeeper, he was awkward, nervous, self-pitying and often rude. His marriage to his devoted wife Alice was complicated by adulterous misdeeds which fired his creative energy. In this expository portrait explores the secret conflicts in Elgar's nature which produced some of Britain's great music. |
