Parry Elegy for Brahms (1897)

[Alan Howe]

What a magnificent piece this is, especially in Bamert's performance on Chandos. Why on earth isn't it played more often?

Adrian Boult's personal choice for his last LP, I seem to remember.  I have the LP still.

[Reverie]

I haven't listened to this in years. It's a beautiful work. Very much neglected.

BBC Proms take note !

[Gareth Vaughan]

I doubt they will.

Is this the one with the 5th symphony? My copy of the LP has long since been replaced by the CD. The Elegy has always been one of my favourite pieces - such a tender homage to Brahms.
