The Dream of Gerontius
Daniel Hyde conducts Elgar's setting of Newman's Dream of Gerontius, recorded last month in King's College, Cambridge. Presented by Andrew McGregor.
Director of Music Daniel Hyde conducts Elgar's masterpiece Dream of Gerontius, recorded last month in King's College, Cambridge. Elgar composed his setting of John Henry Newman's mystical poem in 1900, an overt display of his Catholic faith. In spite of a poor premiere it's a work of which Elgar was justly proud and it tells of Gerontius's journey from deathbed, through divine judgement to his eventual arrival in Purgatory.
Presented by Andrew McGregor.
