Vilde Frang Elgar Violin Concerto 2024  24-192

Commissioned in 1909 by the Philharmonic Society, Elgar’s Violin Concerto was premiered at Queen’s Hill on 10 November 1910, played by Fritz Kreisler (to whom the work is dedicated) with the composer conducting. In addition to the Kreisler dedication, the score also includes a quotation from the novel Gil Blas by Lesage: “Aqui esta encerrada el alma de…..” (“Herein is enshrined the soul of…..”). Most scholars argue that this is a reference to Alice Stuart-Wortley (the five dots corresponding to the five letters of her first name), a close friend for whom Elgar developed romantic feelings. We don’t know if she felt the same way, or if the feelings were ever acted on, but she was certainly the muse that inspired this work.
