In 'Elgar the Music Maker', the author harvests five decades of thoughts about his music, scrutinising the biographical details that have since been discovered but using them only insofar as they affect the compositions. Each of his works is discussed, balancing information and appraisal, from his juvenilia to his unfinished Third Symphony.
