Prom 19 - Elgar's Cello Concerto archive

Part of the BBC Proms. Deeply in love and enlightened by Sanskrit literature, Gustav Holst embarked upon what many consider his true masterpiece. The Cloud Messenger recounts an ancient tale in which a man sends a message of love to his distant wife via a passing cloud. It drew from the composer a rich and passionate work charting love's trials and rewards. This performance, marking 150 years since Holst's birth, comes after Elgar's ever-popular, bittersweet Cello Concerto and the gentle exhalations of Jonathan Harvey's Tranquil Abiding, inspired by Buddhist meditation.
