520    Edward Elgar (1857-1934) is undoubtedly one of the most 
       fascinating, important, and influential figures in the 
       history of British music. He rose from humble beginnings 
       and achieved fame with music that to this day is beloved 
       by audiences in England, and his work has secured an 
       enduring legacy worldwide. Leading scholars examine the 
       composer's life in Edward Elgar and His World, presenting 
       a comprehensive portrait of both the man and the age in 
       which he lived. Elgar's achievement is remarkably varied 
       and wide-ranging, from immensely popular works like the 
       famous Pomp and Circumstance March numbers 1--a standard 
       feature of American graduations--to sweeping masterpieces 
       like his great oratorio The Dream of Gerontius . The 
       contributors explore Elgar's Catholicism, which put him at
       odds with the prejudices of Protestant Britain; his 
       glorification of British colonialism; his populist 
       tendencies; his inner life as an inspired autodidact; the 
       aristocratic London drawing rooms where his reputation was
       made; the class prejudice with which he contended 
       throughout his career; and his anguished reaction to World
       War I. Published in conjunction with the 2007 Bard Music 
       Festival and the 150th anniversary of Elgar's birth, this 
       elegant and thought-provoking volume illuminates the 
       greatness of this accomplished English composer and brings
       vividly to life the rich panorama of Victorian and 
       Edwardian Britain. The contributors are Byron Adams, Leon 
       Botstein, Rachel Cowgill, Sophie Fuller, Daniel M. Grimley,
       Nalini Ghuman Gwynne, Deborah Heckert, Charles Edward 
       McGuire, Matthew Riley, Alison I. Shiel, and Aidan J. 
       Thomson.
