Leading English composer (1857-1934) and a significant figure among late Romantic European musicians. AMQS on the detached flyleaf from a 'The Story of a Midsummer Night’s Dream from the play of Shakespeare,' retold by Alice Spencer Hoffman, boldly signed below in ink, "Edward Elgar." Elgar pens four bars from Felix Mendelssohn's composition for William Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream, titling it above and below: "Overture Mendelssohn, (The Fairies)." The page remains attached to the book's front cover, which is completely detached from its spine; the autographed page itself is in fine condition.
