Quartet in E minor, Op 83

Available for over a year

Emotionally sickened by war, Elgar laboured wearily most of 1918 to produce his only string quartet. Befitting the period - and our nation's mood - the music is hesitant and anguished. Composer: Edward Elgar Performers: Escher String Quartet Recording date: 18 May 2012 Date of broadcast: 19 August 2012
