Out-of-West-Europe performance of Romantic-era English composers

Here we are... new branched-off topic (see VPhil, Elgar, &c)

btw, continuing our thread from earlier, says here that Elgar's "Serenade" for winds was performed in January by the Detroit Symphony, conducted by Leonard Slatkin.  Didn't know Elgar wrote a serenade for winds, I think?... ... elgar.org gives some 1878-1880 works for wind quintet...

Hrmm, the same link says that the DSO performed the violin concerto under Slatkin in May (May 6-7). I don't live in Detroit, but anyway... just noting. (I used to have a tape of Slatkin performing Ropartz in France, so I'm not surprised his repertoire's already maybe a little wider anyway- which I think I already knew on other grounds.)

Elgar wrote a bunch of pieces for five woodwinds (two flutes, oboe, clarinet and bassoon):

Nothing called Serenade though
He also wrote a few pieces called Serenade, though nothing for winds (the only work I have listed specifically for larger wind ensemble is a transcription of Air de Ballet, also called Pastourelle, for orchestra)

Hi Eric. Your link discusses the forthcoming 2015-16 season, not the past season. Perhaps because of Jarvi's erstwhile tenure, Detroit seems rather catholic in its musical sympathies. In fact, in December 2014 Jarvi was back conducting a program with Brahms's Tragic Overture, Stenhammar's Piano Concerto 1, and Strauss's Also Sprach Zarathustra. Stenhammar is certainly not being treated like a novelty there -- his is the longest work on the program.

Ah. My mistake, sorry.
