The death of his wife Alice in 1920 had left Elgar distraught. He was unable to compose anything substantial until starting this symphony in 1931. Unfortunately, Elgar died before completing anything more than ideas. What we hear today is Anthony Payne鈥檚 elaboration on the sketches Elgar left. Payne has done a fantastic job, giving Elgar鈥檚 thoughts a full and final clarity.
