The Elgar Sinfonia of London
“The trees are singing my music, or have I sung theirs?” Sir Edward Elgar
The Elgar Sinfonia has been formed to realise the long standing desire of conductor Adrian Brown to conduct Elgar and other composers close to his heart with a single artistic vision. Lesser known works of Elgar and Berlioz in particular will be performed alongside great and popular works of the British repertory.

The perfect way to celebrate not only British music and Elgar but also Dame Janet Baker receiving the Elgar Medal and 50years of the Elgar Society. Thank you to all who played wonderfully, Elgar himself for the magical composition and of course the other “side of the triangle” as Dame Janet so beautifully said, “the audience.” Fantastic to finally get the chance to fill every seat again!!

An absolutely transcendent Elgar Cello Concerto. The soloist sounded like he was improvising it as he went along, and Adrian's super-responsive conducting gave the impression that the orchestra improvised their responses. I heard so many new things. Truly remarkable.
Congratulations to Adrian and all concerned with last Sunday's event.
It was a huge success and hopefully the first of many.
Great Concert - Congratulations Adrian Brown and the Orchestra, it was a fabulous evening!
Thoroughly enjoyed this concert, really exceptional quality and most enjoyed the variety of colour Adrian Brown was able to draw out of the orchestra. We go to a great number of concerts in London due to our daughter being a player, so we have a lot to compare it to - this was absolutely a stand out concert of the year and we feel privileged to have witnessed it. Thankyou!
