Barber ‘Adagio for Strings’ Liszt Symphonic Poem ‘Tasso’ Elgar ‘Violin Concerto’ We celebrate Liszt’s 2011 bicentenary with one of his great tone poems. Barber’s well-loved Adagio was originally part of his second string quartet. But we begin and end with Elgar. This march is less familiar than the famous No 1, but no less memorable. The Violin Concerto, premiered in 1910, gained immediate popularity and has remained a firm favourite on concert programmes ever since. |
