Edward Elgar, Modernist - Music in the Twentieth Century
Harper-Scott, J. P. E. (Royal Holloway, University of London)
The first full-length analytical study of Edward Elgar's music, this book gives a historical overview of its place in European musical history. Harper-Scott argues that Elgar was a modernist composer, and that his music constitutes a pessimistic twentieth-century assessment of the nature of human being. A detailed glossary is included.
