Description

Scare musical quote of "Gerontius"

Rare AMQS on a beige 5 x 7.5 sheet bearing an affixed image of the English composer. Elgar pens five bars of music, identifying it as being from "Gerontius," and signing his name below. Affixed to a slightly larger sheet and in fine condition. Composed for the Birmingham Music Festival of 1900, Elgar's The Dream of Gerontius is regarded as one of his finest works. Only the third Elgar AMQS we have offered.
