Dit album, 'Elgar: Scenes from the Saga of King Olaf & The Banner of Saint George', is een meesterwerk uit de klassieke muziek. Uitgebracht op 1 februari 2015 door het gerenommeerde label Chandos, biedt het een unieke combinatie van twee van de meest indrukwekkende werken van de beroemde componist Edward Elgar.
Het album is opgebouwd uit twee belangrijke delen: 'Scenes from the Saga of King Olaf, Op. 30' en 'The Banner of Saint George, Op. 33'. 'Scenes from the Saga of King Olaf' is een episch werk dat de luisteraar meeneemt op een reis door de sagen en legendes van koning Olaf, met een breed scala aan emoties en thema's. Van de introductie tot de epiloog, wordt de toeschouwer ondergedompeld in een wereld van mythologie en heroïsme.
Het tweede deel, 'The Banner of Saint George', is een prachtig voorbeeld van Elgars vermogen om verhalen te vertellen door middel van muziek. Met zijn karakteristieke thema's en melodieën, creëert het een sfeer van spanning en ontdekking.
Met een totale duur van 1 uur en 52 minuten, biedt dit album een rijke en afwisselende ervaring voor liefhebbers van klassieke muziek. De combinatie van de twee werken van Elgar maakt het tot een onmisbaar onderdeel van elke klassieke muziekcollectie.
