Elgar thought his Violin Concerto among the best of all his works. It highlights the lyrical and expressive powers of the instrument across all three movements, with an unexpected twist in the finale leading to a breathtaking cadenza accompanied by softly plucked strings in the orchestra.

Cecile Chaminade was hugely successful in the late nineteenth century. Her beguiling ballet, Callirhoë, tells a story based on Greek myth of the love between a prince and a water nymph, and this short suite showcases her fluid and delicate style.

Debussy's largest orchestral piece is an attempt to capture in music the many moods of the sea, including sunrise, the play of light and water, and the surge and power of waves whipped up by the wind.

The Philharmonia Orchestra is Anvil Arts’ Orchestra in Partnership.
