Edward Elgar: Serenade for Strings in E minor, / Academy of St Martin in the Fields
This three-movement Serenade of 1892 was a breakthrough work for Elgar and was one of the first of his works to make any kind of international impact. It’s one of his earliest works in which his distinctive voice is clearly apparent.
The Academy of St Martin in the Fields filmed this performance at Blackheath Halls in south London in August 2020 - the first project the orchestra did together after the country went into lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic in March.
