Elgar by Sir Nicholas Kenyon Cbe

Edward Elgar was born an outsider, into a family of lower-middle class, Catholic, origins. Yet his fame, and ability to write music that struck a chord in the national consciousness, led him to adopt a sycophantic attitude towards the Royal Family and high society. This book offers light on a range of aspects of his life and work.
Nicholas Kenyon is Director of the Proms. He was formerly head of Radio 3, music critic for the Observer and the New Yorker.
