Elgar’s lyrical Violin Concerto was inscribed with the mysterious phrase, ‘Herein is enshrined the soul of ….’. The whole ensemble glows across three emotionally expansive movements – at times tempestuous, at others heartbreakingly tender.

Completed in 1917, Holst’s The Planets can still surprise us. From ‘Mars’ – the piece that inspired countless film soundtracks – to the swelling majesty of ‘Jupiter’ and the atmospheric fade-out of ‘Neptune’, this is composition on a cosmic scale.
