Top international cellist Maciej Kułakoswki performs what is now recognised as one of the greatest works of the 20th century: Edward Elgar’s famous Cello Concerto in E minor, Op. 85.

Composed in 1919, this captivating work was to be Elgar’s final notable work and has become a cornerstone of the solo cello repertoire.

The Symphony No.5 in D Major by Ralph Vaughan Williams was an immediate success at its 1943 premiere. Most notable is the serenity of the work itself as contrasted with the severity of the war then in progress, as well as the allusions to The Pilgrim’s Progress.
