Elgar, Edward (1857-1934)

Artaria Editions is very pleased to introduce a new concept to the study and performance of standard repertoire concertos. Arranged for soloist and chamber ensemble, typically consisting of a quintet of wind players and a string quintet, these new arrangements provide soloists with an opportunity to rehearse and perform major repertoire under conditions closely resembling a full orchestral setting. They provide valuable practice for small ensembles to work with soloists and an ideal vehicle for student conductors to work with major solo repertoire.
