Sir Edward Elgarâ€™s compositional output was prolific, with many well-known pieces, including the Pomp & Circumstance marches, Dream of Gerontius, and of course, the Engima Variations. Elgarâ€™s legacy has been widely debated, but there is no doubt of his influence on â€˜Englishâ€™ music and composers such as Ralph Vaughan Williams, but also further afield, on composers as diverse as Richard Strauss, Jean Sibelius, and Igor Stravinsky. Along with a central theme woven and varied throughout the work, each movement of Engima Variations is also a musical illustration, based on a family member or close friend of Elgar, and indeed Elgar himself. He dedicated the work â€œto my friends pictured withinâ€. â€œNimrodâ€ is the name given to the ninth movement, based on Elgarâ€™s editor and publisher, Augustus J, Jaeger. Musically, there is an obvious hint at the 2nd movement of Beethovenâ€™s Piano Sonata Pathetique, but beyond this there are beautiful legato lines spread across the whole ensemble and a wide variety of timbral, dynamic, and tempo colourations. â€œNimrodâ€ has become a popular piece as a standalone item â€“ often featuring in funerals, memorial services, and other solemn events such as Remembrance Sunday. Hans Zimmer also adapts the piece for use in the score for the 2017 film Dunkirk, and has become a standard tune to represent stoic â€˜Britishnessâ€™.

String Quartet Cello,String Quartet,Viola,Violin - Level 3 - SKU: A0.1042745 Composed by Tomas Luis de Victoria. Arranged by Robert Luke Thompson. Class...(+)

String Quartet Cello,String Quartet,Viola,Violin - Level 3 - SKU: A0.1042745 Composed by Tomas Luis de Victoria. Arranged by Robert Luke Thompson. Classical,Praise & Worship,Renaissance,Sacred,Spiritual. 10 pages. Monkspath Music #647529. Published by Monkspath Music (A0.1042745). Vere Languores is a text often used in sacred motets, drawing from Isaiah 53:4, and Crux Fidelis. TomÃ¡s Luis de Victoria, an accomplished singer, organist, and Catholic priest, is an important Spanish composer of the 16th-century Counter-Reformation, alongside other heavyweight names such as the Italian composer, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina. Victoriaâ€™s first book of motets (Motecta I), published in 1572, features Vere languores as the eleventh work. This arrangement has been transposed to a more strings friendly key, and where appropriate, breath marks have been suggested to align with the original text. A worthwhile addition for any concert, programme, or service, especially those in a sacred venue with impressive acoustics, such as a church or cathedral.
