A Collection of Piano Works by Edward Elgar, the National Composer of Britain

When it comes to Edward Elgar, he is truly a national composer born of Britain, a great figure who left many historically significant masterpieces such as the Pomp and Circumstance Marches and the Enigma Variations (Variations on an Original Theme).

Do you know what kinds of piano pieces Elgar wrote? In fact, he did not leave many works for piano; while pieces like Salut d’Amour exist in arrangements for solo piano, his other works in this genre are not particularly well known.

This time, we shine a spotlight on Elgar’s lesser-known piano music.
