Continuing the Column’s investigation into English Music from abroad, here are some fascinating performances from foreign lands of Elgar’s 1st Symphony.
From Germany … the NDR Radiophilharmonie, conductor Andrew Manze …
From Singapore … the Orchestra of the Music Makers, conductor Chan Tze Law …
From the Basque Country … the Basque National Orchestra, conductor Robert Trevino …
From Korea … the Korean Symphony Orchestra, conductor Chi-Yong Chung …

I hope these are of interest to Elgarians everywhere!
