    Summary note
    The BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Martyn Brabbins perform the Enigma Variations and In The South, two much-loved orchestral favorites that represent the summit of Elgar's maturity. They are coupled with three of his lesser-known wartime works, receiving their first recordings with the original French texts.
