Edward Elgar
Written in F major, range C4 to C6
A packed hall rises to its feet as the big tune swells, broad and singing, then comes back higher and grander, as if everyone had joined in. In 1902 Elgar used the tune again in his Coronation Ode, with A. C. Benson’s words “Land of Hope and Glory”; the piano part follows Edwin H. Lemare’s organ version (1902).
