oxirgi yarim Viktoriyada kiyingan, o'rta yarim yoshli odamning tasviri, o'ng yarim profilda ko'rilgan. Uning taniqli Rim burni va katta mo'ylovi bor
Edvard Elgar, v. 1900 yil

Ser Edvard Uilyam Elgar, 1-baronet, OM, GCVO (/ˈɛlɡ.r/;[1] 1857 yil 2-iyun - 1934 yil 23-fevral) ingliz bastakori, uning ko'pgina asarlari ingliz va xalqaro klassik konsert repertuariga kirgan. Uning taniqli kompozitsiyalari orasida orkestr asarlari, jumladan Enigma Variations, Pomp va vaziyat marshlari, uchun kontsertlar skripka va viyolonsel va ikkitasi simfoniyalar. Shuningdek, u xor asarlarini, shu jumladan Gerontiyning orzusi, kamerali musiqa va qo'shiqlar. U tayinlandi Shoh Musikining ustasi 1924 yilda.

Garchi Elgar odatda ingliz bastakori sifatida qaralsa-da, uning musiqiy ta'sirining aksariyati Angliyadan emas, balki Evropa qit'asidan edi. U o'zini nafaqat musiqiy, balki ijtimoiy jihatdan ham begonadek his qildi. Akademiklar hukmronlik qilgan musiqa doiralarida u o'zini o'zi o'rgatgan bastakor edi; protestant Britaniyada, uning Rim katolikligi ba'zi joylarda shubha bilan qaraldi; va sinfiy ongli jamiyatda Viktoriya davri va Edvardian Angliya, u tan olinganidan keyin ham kamtarin kelib chiqishi haqida juda sezgir edi. U baribir katta yoshli qizga uylandi Britaniya armiyasi ofitser. U musiqiy va ijtimoiy jihatdan unga ilhom berdi, lekin u qirq yoshga qadar muvaffaqiyatga erishish uchun kurashdi, bir qator o'rtacha muvaffaqiyatli ishlardan so'ng u Enigma Variations (1899) Buyuk Britaniyada va chet elda darhol mashhur bo'ldi. U Variatsiyalarni xor asari bilan kuzatib bordi, Gerontiyning orzusi (1900), Rim-katolik matni asosida ba'zi noqulayliklarga sabab bo'lgan Anglikan Britaniyada tashkil topdi, lekin u Britaniyada va boshqa joylarda asosiy repertuar ishiga aylandi va saqlanib qoldi. Keyinchalik uning to'liq metrajli diniy xor asarlari yaxshi kutib olindi, ammo doimiy repertuarga kirmadi.

Elliginchi yillarda Elgar simfoniya va skripka kontsertini yaratdi va bu juda muvaffaqiyatli bo'ldi. Uning ikkinchi simfoniyasi va viyolonsel konserti omma orasida tez orada mashhurlikka erisha olmadi va Britaniya orkestrlari konsert repertuarida doimiy o'rin egallash uchun ko'p yillar davom etdi. Elgarning musiqasi, keyingi yillarda, asosan ingliz tomoshabinlarini o'ziga jalb qiladigan musiqa sifatida ko'rindi. Uning aktsiyalari vafotidan keyin bir avlod uchun past bo'lib qoldi. 1960-yillarda uning asarlari yangi yozuvlari yordamida sezilarli darajada jonlana boshladi. So'nggi yillarda uning ba'zi asarlari xalqaro miqyosda qayta ko'rib chiqildi, ammo musiqa Britaniyada boshqa joylarga qaraganda ko'proq ijro etilmoqda.

Elgarni birinchi bo'lgan bastakor deb ta'rifladilar grammofon jiddiy. 1914 yildan 1925 yilgacha u bir qator akustik yozuvlar uning asarlaridan. Ning kiritilishi harakatlanuvchi spiral mikrofon 1923 yilda ovozni ko'paytirishni yanada aniqroq qilishiga imkon yaratdi va Elgar o'zining aksariyat asosiy orkestr asarlari va undan olingan parchalarning yangi yozuvlarini yaratdi. Gerontiyning orzusi.

Dastlabki yillar

Edvard Elgar kichik qishloqda tug'ilgan Quyi Broadheath, tashqarida Vester, Angliya. Uning otasi Uilyam Genri Elgar (1821–1906) katta bo'lgan Dover London musiqa nashriyotida tahsil olgan. 1841 yilda Uilyam Worcesterga ko'chib o'tdi va u erda ishlagan pianino sozlagichi va nota musiqasi va musiqa asboblari sotiladigan do'kon tashkil etish.[2] 1848 yilda u xo'jalik ishchisining qizi Enn Grininga (1822-1902) uylandi.[3] Edvard ularning etti farzandining to'rtinchisi edi.[n 1] Enn Elgar Edvard tug'ilishidan bir oz oldin Rim katolikligini qabul qilgan va u suvga cho'mgan va Rim-katolik sifatida tarbiyalangan, otasining noroziligi uchun.[n 2] Uilyam Elgar professional standart skripkachisi bo'lgan va organist lavozimini egallagan Vorestrdagi Sent-Jorjning Rim-katolik cherkovi, 1846 yildan 1885 yilgacha. Uning tashabbusi bilan omma tomonidan Cherubini va Xummel da birinchi marta eshitilgan Uch xor festivali u skripka chalgan orkestr tomonidan.[6] Barcha Elgar bolalari musiqiy tarbiya oldilar. Sakkiz yoshga kelib, Elgar fortepiano va skripka darslarini olib borar edi va Vorsestershaydagi ko'plab ulkan uylarda pianinolarni sozlagan otasi, ba'zan uni birga olib borar, unga mahoratini mahalliy muhim shaxslarga namoyish etish imkoniyatini beradi.[2]

Elgarning ota-onasi Uilyam va Enn Elgar

Elgarning onasi san'atga qiziqib, uning musiqiy rivojlanishiga turtki bergan.[3] U undan adabiyotga nozik didni va qishloqqa bo'lgan ehtirosli muhabbatni meros qilib oldi.[7] Uning do'sti va tarjimai holi W. H. "Billi" Rid Elgarning atrofini "uning barcha ishlarini qamrab olgan va butun hayotiga ingichka, ammo unchalik haqiqiy va mustahkam ingliz sifatini bermagan" ta'sirini yozgan.[8][n 3] U yoshligidan bastakorlikni boshladi; o'n yoshga to'lganida Elgar bolalar tomonidan yozilgan va sahnalashtirilgan spektakl uchun u qirq yil o'tgach, u faqat kichik o'zgarishlar bilan qayta tuzilgan va shu nomdagi suitlar sifatida tashkil etilgan musiqani yozgan. Yoshlik tayoqchasi.[3]

O'n besh yoshigacha Elgar Littletonda (hozirgi Littletonda) umumiy ma'lumot oldi.[n 4] Worcester yaqinidagi uy maktabi. Biroq, uning mahalliy o'qituvchilardan fortepiano va skripka darslaridan tashqari yagona rasmiy musiqiy tayyorgarligi yanada rivojlangan skripka o'rganishdan iborat edi Adolf Pollitzer, 1877–78 yillarda Londonga qisqa tashriflari paytida. Elgar "mening birinchi musiqam shu davrda o'rganilgan ibodathona ... sakkiz, to'qqiz yoki o'n yoshimda musiqa kutubxonasidan olingan kitoblardan. "[11] U organlarni chalish bo'yicha qo'llanmalar orqali ishlagan va musiqa nazariyasiga oid har bir kitobini o'qigan.[6] Keyinchalik u eng ko'p yordam berganini aytdi Xubert Parri dagi maqolalar Grove musiqa va musiqachilar lug'ati.[12] Ga borish umidida Elgar nemis tilini o'rgana boshladi Leypsig konservatoriyasi keyingi musiqiy tadqiqotlar uchun, lekin otasi uni yuborishga qodir emas edi. Yillar o'tib, profil The Musical Times Leypsigga etib bormaganligi Elgarning musiqiy rivojlanishi uchun omadli bo'lgan deb hisoblardi: "Shunday qilib, yangi boshlagan bastakor maktablarning dogmatizmidan qutulib qoldi".[6] Biroq, 1872 yilda maktabni tark etgach, Leyptsigga emas, balki mahalliy advokatning ofisiga xizmatchi sifatida borganligi Elgar uchun umidsizlik edi. U ofis lavozimini qulay deb topmadi va uni bajarish uchun nafaqat musiqaga, balki adabiyotga ham murojaat qildi va ashaddiy o'quvchiga aylandi.[n 5] Taxminan shu vaqtlarda u skripkachi va organist sifatida o'zining birinchi ommaviy chiqishlarini o'tkazdi.[14]

Bir necha oydan so'ng, Elgar advokatlikdan ketib, musiqiy karerasini boshladi, pianino va skripka bo'yicha dars berdi va vaqti-vaqti bilan otasining do'konida ishladi.[2] U Worcesterning faol a'zosi edi Quvnoq klub, otasi bilan birga va u qo'shiqchilarga hamroh bo'ldi, skripka chaldi, asarlar yaratdi va tartibga keltirdi va birinchi marta dirijyorlik qildi. Pollitzer skripkachi sifatida Elgarning mamlakatning etakchi solistlaridan biri bo'lish qobiliyatiga ega ekanligiga ishongan,[15] Ammo Elgarning o'zi London kontsertlarida etakchi virtuozlarni eshitgan holda, o'zining skripkasida chalayotgan musiqa etarli darajada ohangda emasligini his qildi va u yakkaxon bo'lish niyatidan voz kechdi.[2] Yigirma ikki yoshda u xizmatchilar guruhining dirijyori lavozimini egalladi Worcester va County Lunatic Boshpana yilda Pauik, Voresterdan uch mil (besh km) uzoqlikda joylashgan.[6] Guruh tarkibiga pikkolo, fleyta, klarnet, ikkita kornet, eyfoniya, uch yoki to'rttasi va shunga o'xshash sonli ikkinchi skripka, vaqti-vaqti bilan viola, violonchel, kontrabas va pianino kirdi.[16] Elgar futbolchilarga murabbiylik qildi va ularning musiqalarini yozdi va tartibga keltirdi, shu jumladan kvadrillalar va polkalar, asboblarning g'ayrioddiy kombinatsiyasi uchun. The Musical Times "Bu amaliy tajriba yosh musiqachi uchun eng katta ahamiyatga ega ekanligini isbotladi. ... U ushbu turli xil asboblarning qobiliyatlari to'g'risida amaliy bilimlarga ega bo'ldi. ... Shu bilan u ohang rangini, ingl. bu va boshqa ko'plab asboblarning chiqishlari. "[6] U ushbu lavozimni 1879 yildan boshlab besh yil davomida Povikka haftasiga bir marta sayohat qilgan.[2] Dastlabki davrda u skripka professori bo'lgan Vorester janoblarining ko'r-ko'rona o'g'il bolalar kolleji.[6]

Tabiatan ancha yakka va introspektiv bo'lsa-da, Elgar Voresterning musiqiy doiralarida yaxshi rivojlandi.[3] U Worcester va da skripkalarda o'ynagan Birmingem Festivallar, va bitta katta tajriba o'ynash edi Dvork "s Simfoniya № 6 va Stabat Mater bastakor estafetasi ostida.[17] Elgar oboist akasi Frank (va o'z shamol guruhini boshqargan dirijyor) yonida muntazam ravishda bassonni shamol kvintetida ijro etdi.[6] Elgar ko'plab qismlarni tartibga keltirdi Motsart, Betxoven, Haydn va boshqalar kvintet uchun, uning aranjirovkasi va kompozitorlik mahoratini oshirmoqda.[6]

Shumann va Braxlar, yuqori, Rubinshteyn va Vagner, pastki, uning musiqasi Elgarga ilhom berdi Leypsig

Chet elga birinchi safarlarida Elgar 1880 yilda Parijga va 1882 yilda Leyptsigga borgan. U eshitgan Sent-San organni o'ynash Madelein va birinchi darajali orkestrlarning konsertlarida qatnashdilar. 1882 yilda u shunday deb yozgan edi: "Menga dozasi juda yaxshi tushdi Shumann (mening idealim!), Braxlar, Rubinshteyn & Vagner, shuning uchun shikoyat qilish uchun sabab yo'q edi. "[11] Leypsigda u konservatoriya talabasi bo'lgan do'sti Xelen Uaverga tashrif buyurdi. Ular 1883 yil yozida shug'ullanishdi, ammo noma'lum sabablarga ko'ra kelgusi yilda bu aloqalar uzildi.[2] Elgar qattiq g'amgin edi va keyinchalik uning sirli ishqiy musiqiy bag'ishlovlari Xelen va unga bo'lgan his-tuyg'ulari haqida gapirib bergan bo'lishi mumkin.[n 6] Uning hayoti davomida Elgar ko'pincha yaqin ayol do'stlaridan ilhomlanib turardi; Xelen Uayverning o'rnini Meri Ligon, Dora Penni, Yuliya Uortinqton, Elis Styuart Vortli va nihoyat Vera Xokman egallab olishdi, ular keksaligini jonlantirdilar.[18]

1882 yilda ko'proq professional orkestr tajribasini qidirib, Elgar skripka chalish uchun ishga qabul qilindi Birmingem bilan Uilyam Stoklining orkestri,[19] u keyingi etti yil davomida har bir kontsertni kim uchun ijro etishini[20] va keyinchalik u "men bilgan barcha musiqalarni o'rgangan" deb da'vo qilgan joyda.[21] 1883 yil 13-dekabrda u Stokley bilan spektaklda ishtirok etdi Birmingem shahar zali uning to'liq orkestr uchun birinchi ishlaridan biri Sérénade mauresque - birinchi marta uning kompozitsiyalaridan biri professional orkestr tomonidan ijro etilgan.[22] Stokli uni asarni olib borishga taklif qilgan, ammo keyinroq "u rad etganini va bundan tashqari, orkestrda o'z o'rnida o'ynashni talab qilganini esladi. Natijada u samimiy va samimiy qarsaklarni tan olish uchun qo'lida skripka bilan paydo bo'lishi kerak edi. tomoshabinlar. "[23] Elgar o'z asarlarini nashr etish uchun tez-tez Londonga borgan, ammo bu davr uning hayotida tez-tez umidsiz va kam pul topgan. U 1884 yil aprel oyida bir do'stiga shunday deb yozgan edi: "Mening istiqbollarim har doimgidek umidsizdir ... Menimcha, men energiyani xohlamayman, shuning uchun ba'zida men qobiliyatni xohlayman degan xulosaga kelaman ... Menda pul yo'q - emas sent. "[24]

Edvard va Elis Elgar, v. 1891 yil

Elgar 29 yoshida yangi o'quvchini oldi, Kerolin Elis Roberts, marhumning qizi General-mayor Sir Genri Roberts va nashr etilgan muallif oyat va nasr fantastika. Elgardan sakkiz yosh katta bo'lgan Elis uch yildan keyin uning rafiqasi bo'ldi. Elgarning tarjimai holi Maykl Kennedi yozadi: "Elisning oilasi uning do'konda ishlaydigan noma'lum musiqachiga uylanish niyatidan dahshatga tushdi va a Rim katolik. U meros qilib olindi ".[2] Ular 1889 yil 8-mayda turmush qurishgan Brompton notiqligi.[17] O'sha paytdan to vafotigacha u o'zining biznes menejeri va ijtimoiy kotibi sifatida ishlagan, uning kayfiyati o'zgargan va mulohazali musiqiy tanqidchi bo'lgan.[25][26] U nufuzli jamiyat e'tiborini jalb qilish uchun qo'lidan kelganicha harakat qildi, garchi muvaffaqiyati cheklangan bo'lsa ham.[27] Vaqt o'tishi bilan, u unga va uning ijtimoiy qatlamiga ko'proq ahamiyat berishini anglab, uning martabasini ko'tarish uchun nima berganini tushunib, unga berilgan sharaflarni qabul qilishni o'rganar edi.[n 7] U kundaligida: "Dahiyning g'amxo'rligi har qanday ayol uchun hayotiy ish kifoya qiladi" deb yozgan.[29] Nishon sifatida Elgar skripka va pianinoga oid qisqa qismini bag'ishladi Salom d'Amour unga.[n 8] Elisning da'vosi bilan Elgarlar Londonga Britaniyaning musiqiy hayotining markaziga yaqinroq bo'lish uchun ko'chib o'tdilar va Elgar o'z vaqtini kompozitsiyaga bag'ishlay boshladi. Ularning yagona farzandi Karis Iren uyida tug'ilgan G'arbiy Kensington 1890 yil 14-avgustda. Uning ismi Elgarning bag'ishlanishida aniqlangan Salom d'Amour, onasining Kerolin va Elis ismlarining qisqarishi edi.

Elgar noma'lum musiqani tinglash imkoniyatidan to'liq foydalandi. Miniatyuradagi ballar va yozuvlar mavjud bo'lgan kunlardan oldin yosh bastakorlar uchun yangi musiqa bilan tanishish oson bo'lmagan.[30] Buning uchun Elgar barcha imkoniyatlardan foydalangan Kristal saroy konsertlar. U va Elis kun sayin qatnashib, turli xil kompozitorlarning musiqalarini tinglashdi. Bular orasida ustalar ham bor edi orkestratsiya kabi ko'p narsalarni kimdan bilib oldi Berlioz va Richard Vagner.[3] Ammo o'zining shaxsiy asarlari London musiqiy sahnasiga unchalik ta'sir ko'rsatmadi. Avgust Manns ning Elgarning orkestr versiyasini olib bordi Salom d'amour va Kristal saroyidagi D-dagi Suite va ikkita noshir Elgarning skripka, organidan ayrim qismlarini qabul qilishdi ixtiyoriylik va qo'shiqlar.[31] Ba'zi taajjubli imkoniyatlar yaqinlashganday tuyuldi, ammo kutilmaganda yo'q bo'lib ketdi.[31] Masalan, dan taklif Qirollik opera teatri, Kovent Garden o'zining ba'zi asarlari bilan ishlash uchun oxirgi soniyada qaytarib olindi Ser Artur Sallivan ba'zi musiqalarini mashq qilish uchun kutilmagan holda etib keldi. Keyinchalik Elgar unga nima bo'lganini aytganda Sallivan dahshatga tushdi.[n 9] Londonda bo'lganida Elgarning yagona muhim komissiyasi o'z uyidan kelgan: Vestester festival qo'mitasi uni 1890 yilgi uchta xor festivali uchun qisqa orkestr asari yaratishga taklif qildi.[33] Natijada Diana McVeagh tomonidan tasvirlangan Grove musiqa va musiqachilar lug'ati, "uning birinchi yirik asari, ishonchli va cheklanmagan Froissart. "Elgar 1890 yil sentyabr oyida Vorsesterda birinchi spektaklni o'tkazdi.[3] Boshqa ish yo'qligi sababli u 1891 yilda Londonni tark etib, xotini va bolasi bilan Vorsestershirega qaytib borishi kerak edi, u erda mahalliy musiqiy ansambllarni olib borish va o'qituvchilik qilish uchun pul topishi mumkin edi. Ular Elisning sobiq uyiga joylashdilar, Buyuk Malvern.[3]

O'sib borayotgan obro'-e'tibor

1890-yillarda Elgar asta-sekin bastakor sifatida obro'-e'tiborini oshirdi, asosan xor festivallarining asarlari Ingliz Midlands. Qora ritsar (1892) va Qirol Olaf (1896), ikkalasi ham ilhomlangan Longfellow, Hayot nuri (1896) va Karaktak (1898) barchasi kamtarona muvaffaqiyatga erishdi va u uzoq yillik noshirga ega bo'ldi Novello va Co.[34] Ushbu o'n yillikning boshqa asarlari quyidagilarni o'z ichiga olgan Iplar uchun serenad (1892) va Uchta Bavariya raqsi (1897). Elgar mahalliy bastakorni tavsiya qilish uchun etarli natijaga ega edi Samuel Kolidj-Teylor kontsert uchun Uch xor festivaliga yosh yigitning martabasini belgilashga yordam berdi.[n 10] Elgar taniqli tanqidchilarning e'tiborini tortdi, ammo ularning sharhlari g'ayratli emas, balki muloyim edi. U festival bastakori sifatida talabga ega bo'lsa-da, u faqat moddiy jihatdan yutqazdi va o'zini qadrlanmagan his qildi. 1898 yilda u "musiqa tufayli yuragi juda og'rib qolganini" aytdi va katta ish bilan muvaffaqiyatga erishish yo'lini topishga umid qildi. Uning do'sti Avgust Jeyger uning ko'nglini ko'tarishga urinib ko'rdi: "Ko'klarning bir kunlik hujumi ... sizning xohishingizni, ehtiyojingizni chetlashtirmaydi, bu sizga mehr ila taqdim etgan ijodiy qobiliyatlardan foydalanishdir. Sizning hammaga tan olinadigan vaqtingiz keladi".[36]

1899 yilda bu bashorat kutilmaganda amalga oshdi. Elgar qirq ikki yoshida Enigma Variations Londonda taniqli nemis dirijyori boshchiligida namoyish etilgan Xans Rixter. Elgarning so'zlari bilan aytganda, "Men asl mavzudagi Variantlar to'plamini eskizini tuzdim. Variantlar meni qiziqtirdi, chunki men ularni o'z do'stlarimning taxalluslari bilan belgilagan edim ... ya'ni har birining o'zgarishini yozganman biri "partiyaning" (odamning) kayfiyatini ifodalovchi ... va ular yozgan deb o'ylagan narsalarni yozgan - agar ular eshak bo'lsa edi. "[37] U "Suratda tasvirlangan do'stlarimga" asarini bag'ishladi. Ehtimol, Jaeger tasvirlangan "Nimrod" eng yaxshi ma'lum bo'lgan o'zgarishdir. Sof musiqiy mulohazalar Elgarni Artur Sallivan va Gubert Parri tasvirlarini o'zgartirishga majbur qildi, ularning uslublarini u sinab ko'rdi, ammo bu o'zgarishlarga kiritolmadi.[38] Katta hajmdagi asar o'ziga xosligi, jozibadorligi va mahoratliligi bilan barchaning olqishiga sazovor bo'ldi va u Elgarni o'z avlodining taniqli bastakori sifatida tanitdi.[3]

Asar rasmiy ravishda nomlangan Asl mavzudagi farqlar; "Enigma" so'zi musiqaning dastlabki oltita satrida paydo bo'ladi, bu esa nomning tanish versiyasiga olib keldi. Jumboq shundaki, garchi "asl mavzu" bo'yicha o'n to'rt xil o'zgarish mavjud bo'lsa-da, Elgar tomonidan hech qachon aniqlanmagan yana bir asosiy mavzu mavjud, u "butun to'plam bo'ylab va bo'ylab ishlaydi" deb aytgan, ammo u hech qachon eshitilmaydi.[n 11] Keyinchalik sharhlovchilarning ta'kidlashicha, Elgar bugungi kunda xarakterli ingliz bastakori sifatida qaralayotgan bo'lsa-da, uning orkestr musiqasi va xususan, ushbu asar o'sha paytda Markaziy Evropa an'analari bilan taqqoslangan ko'p narsalarga ega. Richard Strauss.[2][3] The Enigma Variations Germaniya va Italiyada yaxshi kutib olindi,[40] va hozirgi kungacha butun dunyo bo'ylab kontsertning asosiy mahsulotidir.[n 12]

Elgarning biografisi Bazil Meyn: "Ser Artur Sallivan 1900 yilda vafot etganida, ko'pchilik uchun Elgar, garchi boshqa qurilishning bastakori bo'lsa-da, uning erning birinchi musiqachisi sifatida uning haqiqiy vorisi bo'lganligi ayon bo'ldi" deb izohladi.[17] Elgarning navbatdagi yirik ishi orziqib kutilgan edi.[41] Uchun Birmingem uch yillik musiqa festivali 1900 yilda u Kardinalni o'rnatdi Jon Genri Nyuman she'r Gerontiyning orzusi solistlar, xor va orkestr uchun.

Nemis matbuoti g'ayratli edi. Köln gazetasi dedi: "Ikkala qismda ham biz chirimaydigan go'zallik bilan uchrashamiz. ... Elgar Berlioz, Vagner va Liszt, u muhim individuallikka aylanguniga qadar uning ta'siridan o'zini ozod qildi. U zamonaviy zamon musiqa san'atining etakchilaridan biri. " Dyusseldorfer Volksblatt "Esda qolarli va epoxa yaratadigan birinchi spektakl! Lisz davridan buyon oratoriya yo'lida hech narsa ishlab chiqarilmadi ... bu muqaddas kantataning buyukligi va ahamiyatiga yetadi".[43] Keyinchalik o'sha davrning etakchi bastakori sifatida keng tanilgan Richard Strauss,[44] shunchalik taassurot qoldirdiki, Elgar huzurida u "birinchi ingliz progressiv musiqachisi Meister Elgar" ning muvaffaqiyati uchun tost taklif qildi.[44][n 13] Vena, Parij va Nyu-Yorkdagi chiqishlari,[3][46] va Gerontiyning orzusi tez orada Britaniyada teng darajada hayratga tushdi. Kennedining so'zlariga ko'ra, "Bu shubhasiz oratoriya shaklidagi inglizlarning eng buyuk asari ... [u] ingliz xor an'analarida yangi bob ochdi va uni Gandeliya bandligidan ozod qildi".[2] Elgar, Rim-katolik sifatida, Nyumanning gunohkorning o'limi va qutqarilishi haqidagi she'ri juda ta'sirlangan, ammo Anglikan tuzilmasining ba'zi nufuzli a'zolari bunga qo'shilmaydilar. Uning hamkasbi, Charlz Villiers Stenford ish "tutatqi tutatqi hididan" shikoyat qildi.[47] The Dekan ning Gloucester taqiqlangan Gerontius 1901 yildagi soboridan va keyingi yili Voresterda dekan ekspluatatsiyaga ruxsat berishdan oldin ekspuratsiya qilishni talab qildi.[48]

Vud Keyinchalik u tomoshabinlar "ko'tarilib baqirgan ... Promenade kontsertlari tarixida orkestr asari ikki baravar bo'lgan yagona va yagona marta" deb yozgan.[52] Belgilash uchun Edvard VII toj kiyinishi, Elgar o'rnatish uchun topshirildi A. C. Benson "s Koronatsiya oddi 1901 yil iyun oyida Qirollik opera teatrida bo'lib o'tgan gala-kontsert uchun shoh tasdiqlandi va Elgar ish boshladi. The qarama-qarshi Klara Butt uni birinchi trio deb ishontirgan edi Pomp va vaziyat marsh unga mos keladigan so'zlar bo'lishi mumkin edi va Elgar Bensonni bunga taklif qildi. Elgar yangi vokal versiyasini Ode-ga kiritdi. Balni nashr etganlar "Umid va shon-sharaf mamlakati" vokal asarining imkoniyatlarini tan oldilar va Benson va Elgardan alohida qo'shiq sifatida nashr etish uchun yana bir bor qayta ko'rib chiqishni iltimos qildilar.[53] Bu juda mashhur edi va endi norasmiy Britaniyaning milliy madhiyasi deb hisoblanadi.[2] Qo'shma Shtatlarda, oddiygina "Pomp va vaziyat" yoki "Bitiruv marshi" deb nomlanadigan uchlik, 1905 yildan boshlab deyarli barcha o'rta maktab va universitet bitiruvchilari uchun qabul qilingan.[54][55]

1904 yil mart oyida Covent Gardenda uch kunlik Elgar asarlari festivali taqdim etildi, bu hech qachon ingliz bastakoriga berilmagan. The Times izoh berdi: "To'rt-besh yil oldin kimdir Opera binosi ingliz bastakori tomonidan oratoriya ijro etilishi uchun poldan shiftgacha to'lishini taxmin qilgan bo'lsa, ehtimol u aqlidan ketgan bo'lishi kerak edi".[56] Shoh va malika Rixter olib borgan birinchi kontsertda qatnashdi Gerontiyning orzusi,[56] va keyingi kuni kechqurun London premerasi bo'lgan ikkinchi filmga qaytdi Havoriylar (avvalgi yilni Birmingem festivalida birinchi marta eshitgan).[57] Elgar tomonidan o'tkazilgan festivalning yakuniy kontserti, birinchi navbatda, orkestr edi Karaktak va to'liq Dengiz rasmlari (Klara Butt tomonidan kuylangan). Orkestr buyumlari edi Froissart, Enigma Variations, Cockaigne, birinchi ikkitasi (o'sha paytda faqat ikkitasi) Pomp va vaziyat yurishlar va yangi orkestr asarining premyerasi, Janubda, Italiyadagi ta'tildan ilhomlangan.[58]

Birmingem universiteti Elgar Peyton musiqa professori bo'lganida bo'lgani kabi

Elgar edi ritsar Bukingem saroyida 1904 yil 5-iyulda.[59] Keyingi oy u oilasi bilan Plas Gvinga ko'chib o'tdi,[60] chetidagi katta uy Hereford, ga e'tibor bermay Vay daryosi, ular 1911 yilgacha yashagan.[2] 1902-1914 yillarda Elgar, Kennedining so'zlari bilan, mashhurlik avjiga chiqqan edi.[2] U to'rt marotaba AQShga tashrif buyurgan, shu jumladan bitta gastrol safari va musiqasini ijro etish evaziga katta pul ishlagan. 1905-1908 yillarda u Peyton musiqa professori lavozimini egallagan Birmingem universiteti.[3] U bastakor musiqa maktabiga rahbarlik qilmasligi kerakligini o'ylab, bu lavozimni istaksiz qabul qildi.[61] U rolda oson emas edi,[62] va uning ma'ruzalari munozaralarga sabab bo'ldi, uning tanqidchilarga qarshi hujumlari[63][n 14] va umuman ingliz musiqasi haqida: "Vaqt o'tishi bilan beparvolik yaxshilanishi mumkin. Achchiqlik ko'pincha ixtirochilik bilan birga keladi ... lekin oddiy aql hech qachon oddiy narsadan boshqa narsa bo'lolmaydi. Ingliz sizni katta xonaga olib boradi, mutanosib mutanosib, va u sizga oq rang - butun oq rangda ekanligini ko'rsatib beradi va kimdir: "Qanday ajoyib lazzat", deb aytadi, siz o'zingizning ongingizda, o'z qalbingizda bilasizki, u umuman ta'mi yo'q, bu lazzatlanish istagi, bu shunchaki qochish. Ingliz musiqasi oq rangga ega va hamma narsadan qochadi. " U mojarodan afsuslandi va lavozimni do'stiga topshirganidan xursand bo'ldi Granvil Bantok 1908 yilda.[66] Uning taniqli odam sifatida yangi hayoti juda mahkamlangan Elgarga turli xil baraka bo'ldi, chunki bu uning shaxsiy hayotiga to'sqinlik qildi va u ko'pincha sog'lig'i yomon edi. U 1903 yilda Jeygerga shunday deb shikoyat qilgan: "Mening hayotim doimiy ravishda o'zim yaxshi ko'rgan mayda narsalardan voz kechishdir".[67] Ikkalasi ham V. S. Gilbert va Tomas Xardi ushbu o'n yillikda Elgar bilan hamkorlik qilishga intildi. Elgar rad etdi, lekin u bilan hamkorlik qilgan bo'lar edi Jorj Bernard Shou Shou tayyor edi.[68]

Elgar 1905-1911 yillarda AQShga uch marta tashrif buyurgan. Birinchisi, musiqasini ijro etish va doktorlik dissertatsiyasini qabul qilish edi. Yel universiteti.[3][n 15] Uning 1905 yildagi asosiy tarkibi Kirish va satrlar uchun Allegro, bag'ishlangan Samuel Sanford, p Bu juda yaxshi kutib olindi, ammo jamoatchilik tasavvuriga o'xshamadi Gerontiyning orzusi qilgan va qilishni davom ettirgan. Biroq, qiziquvchan elgariyaliklar orasida Shohlik ba'zan avvalgi ishdan afzalroq edi: Elgarning do'sti Frank Shuster - dedi yoshlarga Adrian Boult: "bilan solishtirganda Shohlik, Gerontius bu xom havaskorning ishidir. "[71] Elgar o'zining 50 yoshiga yaqinlashganda, o'zining birinchi simfoniyasi ustida ish boshladi, bu loyiha o'n yilga yaqin turli xil shakllarda yodda saqlanib qoldi.[72] Uning Birinchi simfoniya (1908) milliy va xalqaro g'alaba edi. Premeradan bir necha hafta o'tgach, Nyu-Yorkda namoyish etildi Valter Damrosh, Vena ostida Ferdinand Lyov, Sankt-Peterburg ostida Aleksandr Siloti, va Leypsig ostida Artur Nikish. Rimda, Chikagoda, Bostonda, Torontoda va Britaniyaning o'n beshta shahar va shaharlarida tomoshalar namoyish etildi. Bir yildan ko'proq vaqt ichida u Buyuk Britaniyada, Amerikada va Evropaning qit'asida yuzlab spektakllarni qabul qildi.[73]

The Skripka kontserti (1910) tomonidan buyurtma qilingan Fritz Kreysler, vaqtning etakchi xalqaro skripkachilaridan biri. Elgar buni 1910 yil yozida, vaqti-vaqti bilan rahbar V. V. Rid yordamida yozgan London simfonik orkestri, bastakorga texnik jihatlar bo'yicha maslahatlar berishda yordam bergan. Elgar va Rid mustahkam do'stlikni o'rnatdilar, ular Elgarning butun hayoti davomida davom etishdi. Ridning tarjimai holi, Men uni bilganim kabi Elgar (1936), Elgarning kompozitsiya usullarining ko'plab tafsilotlarini qayd etadi.[74] Tomonidan taqdim etilgan Qirollik filarmoniyasi, Kreisler va London simfonik orkestri bilan bastakor dirijyorligida. Rid esladi: "Kontsert to'liq g'alaba, kontsert yorqin va unutilmas voqea bo'ldi".[75] Konsertning ta'siri shunchalik ajoyib ediki, Kreylerning raqibi Eugène Ysaÿe ish paytida Elgar bilan ko'p vaqt o'tkazdi. Shaxsiy shartnomada Isoning Londonda o'ynashiga to'sqinlik qilganida, katta umidsizlik paydo bo'ldi.[75]

Skripka kontserti Elgarning so'nggi mashhur g'alabasi bo'ldi. Keyingi yil u o'zining sovg'asini taqdim etdi Ikkinchi simfoniya Londonda, lekin uning qabulidan hafsalasi pir bo'lgan. Birinchi simfoniyadan farqli o'laroq, u orkestrning ulug'vorligida emas, balki tinch va tafakkurda tugaydi. Premerada o'ynagan Rid keyinchalik Elgarni qarsaklar uchun minnatdorchilik bildirish uchun platformaga chaqirib olganini yozdi, "ammo auditoriya, hatto ingliz auditoriyasi ham xuddi shu tarzda yaxshilangan yoki ishlanganida sezilgan notog'ri notani o'tkazib yubordi. skripka kontsertidan yoki birinchi simfoniyasidan keyin. "[76] Elgar Riddan so'radi: "Ularga nima bo'ldi, Billi? Ular u erda juda ko'p to'ldirilgan cho'chqalar kabi o'tirishadi".[76] Asar odatdagi me'yorlar bo'yicha muvaffaqiyat qozondi, premyeradan keyingi uch yil ichida yigirma etti spektakl namoyish etildi, ammo u xalqaro darajaga erisha olmadi g'azab Birinchi simfoniya.[77]

1911 yil iyun oyida, atrofidagi bayramlarning bir qismi sifatida toj kiydirish ning Qirol Jorj V, Elgar tayinlandi Faxriy xizmat ordeni,[78] har qanday vaqtda yigirma to'rtta egasi bilan cheklangan sharaf. Keyingi yili Elgarlar yana Londonga, Netherhall bog'laridagi katta uyga ko'chib ketishdi. Xempstid tomonidan ishlab chiqilgan Norman Shou. U erda Elgar urushdan oldingi so'nggi ikki yirik hajmli asarini, xor odasini, Musiqa ishlab chiqaruvchilari (Birmingem festivali uchun, 1912) va simfonik o'rganish Falstaff (Lids festivali uchun, 1913). Ikkalasi ham xushmuomalalik bilan qabul qilindi, ammo ishtiyoqsiz. Hatto bag'ishlovchisi Falstaff, dirijyor Landon Ronald, "qismning boshini yoki dumini yasay olmasligini" o'zi uchun tan oldi,[79] musiqa olimi esa Persi Skoulz haqida yozgan Falstaff bu "buyuk ish" bo'lganligi, ammo "jamoatchilikni qadrlashi qadar, qiyosiy muvaffaqiyatsizlik".[80]

Birinchi jahon urushi boshlanganda, Elgar qirg'in ehtimoli bilan dahshatga tushdi, ammo baribir uning vatanparvarlik tuyg'usi qo'zg'atildi.[81] U "Askarlar uchun qo'shiq" ni yaratdi va keyinchalik uni olib tashladi. U mahalliy politsiyada maxsus konstable sifatida ro'yxatdan o'tdi va keyinchalik armiyaning Hampstead ko'ngillilar rezerviga qo'shildi.[82] U vatanparvarlik asarlarini yaratdi, Karillon, Belgiya sharafiga ma'ruzachi va orkestr uchun tilovat,[83] va Poloniya, Polsha sharafiga orkestr asari.[84] Umid va shon-sharaf mamlakati, allaqachon mashhur bo'lib, yana ham tobora ommalashib ketdi va Elgar bejizga yangi, kamroq millatparvar so'zlarni ohangda kuylashni xohladi.[3]

Elgarning urush davridagi boshqa asarlari ham shu erda bo'lgan tasodifiy musiqa bolalar o'yinlari uchun, Starlight Express (1915); balet, Sanguine fanati (1917); va Angliya ruhi (1915-17), she'rlariga Lorens Binyon ), uchta xor sozlamalari avvalgi yillardagi romantik vatanparvarlikdan farq qiladi.[3] Uning urush yillaridagi so'nggi keng ko'lamli tarkibi Filoning chekkalari, oyatlarning sozlamalari Rudyard Kipling, Kipling noma'lum sabablarga ko'ra ularning teatrlardagi chiqishlariga e'tiroz bildirmaguncha, mamlakat bo'ylab katta mashhurlik bilan ijro etildi.[85] Elgar asar uchun yozuvlar yozdi Gramofon kompaniyasi.[86]

Urushning oxirlarida Elgarning sog'lig'i yomon edi. Xotini uning qishloqqa ko'chib o'tishini ma'qul ko'rdi va "Brinkuells" uyini ijaraga oldi Fittvort rassomdan Sasseksda Reks Vikat Koul. U erda Elgar kuchini tikladi va 1918 va 1919 yillarda to'rtta yirik hajmli asar yaratdi. Ulardan dastlabki uchtasi edi kamera qismlari: the Minorada skripka Sonatasi, Minorada pianino kvinteti, va I minorda simli kvartet. Tugallanayotgan ishni eshitib, Elis Elgar o'zining kundaligida "E. ajoyib yangi musiqa yozmoqda" deb yozgan.[87] Uchala asar ham yaxshi kutib olindi. The Times "Elgarning sonatasida biz ilgari eshitgan ko'p narsalar boshqa shakllarda mavjud, ammo biz uning o'zgarishini va boshqa birov bo'lishini umuman istamasligimiz sababli, xuddi shunday bo'lishi kerak".[88] Kvartet va kvintetning premyerasi Wigmore Hall 1919 yil 21 mayda. Manchester Guardian shunday deb yozgan edi: "Bu kvartet o'zining ulkan cho'qqilariga, raqs ritmlarining qiziquvchan noziklariga va mukammal simmetriyasiga ega va kvintet yanada lirik va ehtirosli bo'lib, buyuk oratoriyalar o'z turiga kirgandek mukammal musiqa namunalari."[89]

Aksincha, qolgan ish, Violonchel konserti minor, 1919 yil oktyabrda London Simfonik Orkestrining 1919-20 yilgi mavsumining ochilish konsertida halokatli premyerasi bo'lgan. Bastakor olib borgan Elgar asaridan tashqari, dasturning qolgan qismini Albert Kates, mashg'ulot vaqtini Elgarning hisobiga o'tkazib yuborgan. Ledi Elgar "o'sha shafqatsiz xudbin yomon xulq-atvori ... shafqatsiz Kouts mashqlarni davom ettirgan" deb yozgan.[90] Tanqidchisi Kuzatuvchi, Ernest Nyuman ", deb yozgan edi." Etarli bo'lmagan takroriy mashg'ulotlar haftasi davomida mish-mishlar tarqaldi. Qanday tushuntirish berishidan qat'iy nazar, afsuski, hech qachon, ehtimol, buyuk orkestr o'zini o'zi uchun shunday afsuslanarli ko'rgazma qilmagan. Asarning o'zi bu juda yoqimli narsalar, juda sodda - bu so'nggi ikki yil ichida Elgarning musiqasida paydo bo'lgan homilador soddaligi - lekin uning soddaligi zamirida chuqur donolik va go'zallik bor. "[91] Elgar o'zining solistiga hech qanday ayb aytmadi, Feliks Salmond, keyinchalik bu ishni yana kim uchun ijro etgan.[92] Birinchi simfoniya va uning bir yildan oshiq vaqt ichida yuzlab chiqishlaridan farqli o'laroq, "Cello" kontserti Londonda bir yildan ko'proq vaqt davomida ikkinchi marta namoyish etilmagan.[93]

So'nggi yillar

1919 yilda Elgar, tomonidan Uilyam Rotenshteyn

20-asrning 20-yillarida Elgarning musiqasi endi moda bo'lmagan bo'lsa ham,[2] uning muxlislari iloji bo'lsa, uning asarlarini taqdim etishda davom etishdi. Rid 1920 yil mart oyida "jamoat uchun deyarli noma'lum bo'lgan yigit" Adrian Boult tomonidan olib borilgan Ikkinchi simfoniyaning "asarning ulug'vorligi va zodagonligini" keng jamoatchilikka etkazgani uchun ijro etadi. Shuningdek, 1920 yilda Landon Ronald Elgar konsertini taqdim etdi Qirolicha zali.[94] Elis Elgar simfoniyani qabul qilish to'g'risida ishtiyoq bilan yozgan, ammo bu Elgar musiqasini jamoat oldida eshitgan so'nggi paytlardan biri edi.[95] Qisqa kasallikdan so'ng, u 1920 yil 7 aprelda, etmish ikki yoshida o'pka saratonidan vafot etdi.[96]

Elgar xotinidan judo bo'lganidan qattiq xafa bo'ldi.[92] Yangi asarlarga jamoatchilik talabi bo'lmagan va Elisning doimiy ko'magi va ilhomidan mahrum bo'lganligi sababli, u o'zini kompozitsiyadan chetlashtirishga imkon berdi. Keyinchalik uning qizi Elgar otasidan "qo'lda ishlashga joylashishni istamaslikni, lekin Elisning o'limidan keyin kuchliroq bo'lgan ba'zi bir keraksiz va umuman ishsiz ishlarni quvonch bilan o'tkazishi" ni meros qilib qoldirganini yozgan.[97] Qolgan umrining ko'p qismida Elgar o'zini bir nechta sevimli mashg'ulotlariga jalb qildi.[2] Uning hayoti davomida u juda qiziquvchan edi havaskor kimyogar, ba'zan uning orqa bog'ida laboratoriyadan foydalanadi.[98] U hatto "Elgar sulfatlangan vodorod apparati" ni 1908 yilda patentlagan.[99][100][101] U zavqlanardi futbol, qo'llab-quvvatlovchi "Vulverxempton" - "Liverpul" kim uchun u madhiya yaratdi,[102] "U charm uchun gol urdi",[103] va keyingi yillarda u tez-tez ot poygalarida qatnashgan. Uning himoyachilari, dirijyor Malkolm Sarjent va skripkachi Yehudi Menuxin, ikkalasi ham Elgar bilan mashg'ulotlarni esladilar, unda u tezda hamma yaxshi ekaniga ko'ndirdi va keyin poyga tomon yo'l oldi.[104][105] Yosh kunlarida Elgar g'ayratli velosipedchi edi, 1903 yilda o'zi va rafiqasi uchun Royal Sunbeam velosipedlarini sotib olgan (u o'zining "janob" deb nomlagan. Fibus ").[106] Keksa beva ayol sifatida, uni haydovchi qishloqda haydashni yaxshi ko'rardi.[2] 1923 yil noyabr va dekabr oylarida u Braziliyaga sayohat qilib, yuqoriga ko'tarildi Amazon ga Manaus, u erda uning opera teatri taassurot qoldirdi Amazonas teatri. Elgarning faoliyati yoki sayohat paytida duch kelgan voqealari haqida yozuvchiga bergan deyarli hech narsa yozilmagan Jeyms Xemilton-Paterson yozishda sezilarli kenglik Gerontius, sayohat haqidagi xayoliy hisobot.[107]

Elis vafotidan so'ng, Elgar Xempsteddagi uyni sotdi va qisqa vaqt ichida kvartirada yashadi Sent-Jeymsniki Londonning markazida u Vorsestershire shahriga, qishloqqa qaytib bordi Kempsey, u erda 1923 yildan 1927 yilgacha yashagan.[108] Bu yillarda u kompozitsiyadan butunlay voz kechmadi. U tomonidan asarlarining keng ko'lamdagi simfonik aranjirovkalari amalga oshirildi Bax va Handel va uning yozgan Empire March va sakkizta qo'shiq Imperiya tantanasi 1924 yil uchun Britaniya imperiyasi ko'rgazmasi.[109] Bular nashr etilganidan ko'p o'tmay, u tayinlandi Shoh Musikining ustasi 1924 yil 13 mayda, vafotidan keyin Ser Valter Parratt.[110]

1926 yildan boshlab Elgar o'z asarlarining bir qator yozuvlarini yaratdi. Musiqiy yozuvchi Robert Filipp tomonidan "grammofonni jiddiy qabul qilgan birinchi kompozitor" deb ta'riflagan,[111] u o'zining akustik-yozib olish jarayonida musiqasining ko'p qismini allaqachon yozib olgan edi Uning ustozining ovozi (HMV) 1914 yildan boshlab, ammo 1925 yilda elektr mikrofonlarning kiritilishi grammofonni yangilikdan orkestr va xor musiqalarini takrorlash uchun real muhitga aylantirdi.[111] Ushbu texnologik taraqqiyotdan to'liq foydalangan birinchi kompozitor Elgar edi.[111] Fred Gaysberg Elgarning yozuvlarini yaratgan HMV guruhi bastakorning o'zining asosiy orkestr asarlari talqinlarini diskka yozib olish uchun bir qator mashg'ulotlarni tashkil etdi. Enigma Variations, Falstaff, birinchi va ikkinchi simfoniyalar, viyolonsel va skripka kontsertlari. Ularning aksariyati uchun orkestr LSO edi, ammo O'zgarishlar qirollik Albert zali orkestri tomonidan ijro etilgan. Keyinchalik, Elgar bir qator yozuvlarda Boult's yangi tashkil etilgan ikkita orkestrni boshqargan BBC simfonik orkestri va Ser Tomas Beecham "s London filarmonik orkestri.

Elgarning yozuvlari HMV va 78-daqiqali disklarda chiqarildi RCA Viktor. After World War II, the 1932 recording of the Violin Concerto with the teenage Menuhin as soloist remained available on 78 and later on LP, but the other recordings were out of the catalogues for some years. When they were reissued by EMI on LP in the 1970s, they caused surprise to many by their fast tempi, in contrast to the slower speeds adopted by many conductors in the years since Elgar's death.[111] The recordings were reissued on CD in the 1990s.[112]

In November 1931, Elgar was filmed by Pathe for a newsreel depicting a recording session of Pomp va vaziyat 1-mart at the opening of EMI's Abbey Road Studios Londonda. It is believed to be the only surviving sound film of Elgar, who makes a brief remark before conducting the London Symphony Orchestra, asking the musicians to "play this tune as though you've never heard it before."[113] A memorial plaque to Elgar at Abbey Road was unveiled on 24 June 1993.[114]

A late piece of Elgar's, the Bolalar xonasi, was an early example of a studio premiere: its first performance was in the Abbey Road studios. For this work, dedicated to the wife and daughters of the York gersogi, Elgar once again drew on his youthful sketch-books.[3][n 16]

In his final years, Elgar experienced a musical revival. The BBC organised a festival of his works to celebrate his seventy-fifth birthday, in 1932.[115] He flew to Paris in 1933 to conduct the Violin Concerto for Menuhin. While in France, he visited his fellow composer Frederik Delius at his house at Grez-sur-Loing.[17] He was sought out by younger musicians such as Adrian Boult, Malcolm Sargent and Jon Barbirolli, who championed his music when it was out of fashion.[116][117] He began work on an opera, Ispaniyalik xonim, and accepted a commission from the BBC tuzmoq Uchinchi simfoniya. His final illness, however, prevented their completion. He fretted about the unfinished works. He asked Reed to ensure that nobody would "tinker" with the sketches and attempt a completion of the symphony,[118] but at other times he said, "If I can't complete the Third Symphony, somebody will complete it – or write a better one."[119] After Elgar's death, Percy M. Young, in co-operation with the BBC and Elgar's daughter Carice, produced a version of Ispaniyalik xonim,[120] which was issued on CD. The Third Symphony sketches were elaborated by the composer Entoni Peyn into a complete score in 1998.[119]

Ishga yaroqsiz kolorektal saraton was discovered during an operation on 8 October 1933. He told his consulting doctor, Artur Tomson, that he had no faith in an keyingi hayot: "I believe there is nothing but complete oblivion."[121] Elgar died on 23 February 1934 at the age of seventy-six and was buried next to his wife at St Wulstan's Roman Catholic Church in Kichik Malvern.[122]

Influences, antecedents and early works

Elgar was contemptuous of folk music[123] and had little interest in or respect for the early English composers, calling Uilyam Berd and his contemporaries "museum pieces". Of later English composers, he regarded Purcell as the greatest, and he said that he had learned much of his own technique from studying Hubert Parry's writings.[124] The continental composers who most influenced Elgar were Handel, Dvořák and, to some degree, Brahms. In Elgar's kromatiklik, the influence of Wagner is apparent, but Elgar's individual style of orchestration owes much to the clarity of nineteenth-century French composers, Berlioz, Massenet, Saint-Saëns and, particularly, Delibes, whose music Elgar played and conducted at Worcester and greatly admired.[123][125]

Elgar began composing when still a child, and all his life he drew on his early sketchbooks for themes and inspiration. The habit of assembling his compositions, even large-scale ones, from scraps of themes jotted down randomly remained throughout his life.[126] His early adult works included violin and piano pieces, music for the wind quintet in which he and his brother played between 1878 and 1881, and music of many types for the Powick Asylum band. Diana McVeagh in Grove lug'ati finds many embryonic Elgarian touches in these pieces, but few of them are regularly played, except Salom d'Amour and (as arranged decades later into Yoshlik tayoqchasi Suites) some of the childhood sketches.[3] Elgar's sole work of note during his first spell in London in 1889–91, the overture Froissart, was a romantic-bravura piece, influenced by Mendelson and Wagner, but also showing further Elgarian characteristics.[3] Orchestral works composed during the subsequent years in Worcestershire include the Iplar uchun serenad va Uchta Bavariya raqsi. In this period and later, Elgar wrote songs and partsongs. W. H. Reed expressed reservations about these pieces, but praised the partsong Qor, for female voices, and Dengiz rasmlari, a cycle of five songs for contralto and orchestra which remains in the repertory.[127]

Elgar's principal large-scale early works were for chorus and orchestra for the Three Choirs and other festivals. Bular edi Qora ritsar, Qirol Olaf, The Light of Life, The Banner of St George va Karaktak. Shuningdek, u yozgan Te Deum va Benedikt for the Hereford Festival. Of these, McVeagh comments favourably on his lavish orchestration and innovative use of leytmotivlar, but less favourably on the qualities of his chosen texts and the patchiness of his inspiration. McVeagh makes the point that, because these works of the 1890s were for many years little known (and performances remain rare), the mastery of his first great success, the Enigma Variations, appeared to be a sudden transformation from mediocrity to genius, but in fact his orchestral skills had been building up throughout the decade.[3]

Elgar and the London simfonik orkestri da Qirolicha zali

Elgar's best-known works were composed within the twenty-one years between 1899 and 1920. Most of them are orchestral. Reed wrote, "Elgar's genius rose to its greatest height in his orchestral works" and quoted the composer as saying that, even in his oratorios, the orchestral part is the most important.[128] The Enigma Variations made Elgar's name nationally. The variation form was ideal for him at this stage of his career, when his comprehensive mastery of orchestration was still in contrast to his tendency to write his melodies in short, sometimes rigid, phrases.[3] His next orchestral works, Cockaigne, a concert-overture (1900–1901), the first two Pomp va vaziyat marches (1901), and the gentle Bolalarni orzu qiling (1902), are all short: the longest of them, Cockaigne, lasting less than fifteen minutes. Janubda (1903–1904), although designated by Elgar as a concert-overture, is, according to Kennedy, really a ohang she'ri and the longest continuous piece of purely orchestral writing Elgar had essayed. He wrote it after setting aside an early attempt to compose a symphony.[129] The work reveals his continuing progress in writing sustained themes and orchestral lines, although some critics, including Kennedy, find that in the middle part "Elgar's inspiration burns at less than its brightest."[130] In 1905 Elgar completed the Kirish va satrlar uchun Allegro. This work is based, unlike much of Elgar's earlier writing, not on a profusion of themes but on only three. Kennedy called it a "masterly composition, equalled among English works for strings only by Vaughan Uilyams "s Tallis Fantaziya."[131]

During the next four years Elgar composed three major concert pieces, which, though shorter than comparable works by some of his European contemporaries, are among the most substantial such works by an English composer. Bular unga tegishli edi Birinchi simfoniya, Skripka kontserti va Ikkinchi simfoniya, which all play for between forty-five minutes and an hour.[n 17] McVeagh says of the symphonies that they "rank high not only in Elgar's output but in English musical history. Both are long and powerful, without published programmes, only hints and quotations to indicate some inward drama from which they derive their vitality and eloquence. Both are based on classical form but differ from it to the extent that ... they were considered prolix and slackly constructed by some critics. Certainly the invention in them is copious; each symphony would need several dozen music examples to chart its progress."[3]

Elgar's Violin Concerto and Viyolonselning konserti, in the view of Kennedy, "rank not only among his finest works, but among the greatest of their kind".[132] They are, however, very different from each other. The Violin Concerto, composed in 1909 as Elgar reached the height of his popularity, and written for the instrument dearest to his heart,[127] is lyrical throughout and rhapsodical and brilliant by turns.[133] The Cello Concerto, composed a decade later, immediately after World War I, seems, in Kennedy's words, "to belong to another age, another world ... the simplest of all Elgar's major works ... also the least grandiloquent."[134] Between the two concertos came Elgar's symphonic study Falstaff, which has divided opinion even among Elgar's strongest admirers. Donald Tovey viewed it as "one of the immeasurably great things in music", with power "identical with Shakespeare's",[135] while Kennedy criticises the work for "too frequent reliance on ketma-ketliklar " and an over-idealised depiction of the female characters.[136] Reed thought that the principal themes show less distinction than some of Elgar's earlier works.[137] Elgar himself thought Falstaff the highest point of his purely orchestral work.[138]

The major works for voices and orchestra of the twenty-one years of Elgar's middle period are three large-scale works for soloists, chorus and orchestra: Gerontiyning orzusi (1900), and the oratorios Havoriylar (1903) va Shohlik (1906); and two shorter odes, the Koronatsiya oddi (1902) va Musiqa ishlab chiqaruvchilari (1912). The first of the odes, as a pièce d'occasion, has rarely been revived after its initial success, with the culminating "Land of Hope and Glory". The second is, for Elgar, unusual in that it contains several quotations from his earlier works, as Richard Strauss quoted himself in Eyn Heldenleben.[139] The choral works were all successful, although the first, Gerontius, was and remains the best-loved and most performed.[140] On the manuscript Elgar wrote, quoting Jon Ruskin, "This is the best of me; for the rest, I ate, and drank, and slept, loved and hated, like another. My life was as the vapour, and is not; but this I saw, and knew; this, if anything of mine, is worth your memory."[3] All three of the large-scale works follow the traditional model with sections for soloists, chorus and both together. Elgar's distinctive orchestration, as well as his melodic inspiration, lifts them to a higher level than most of their British predecessors.[141]

Elgar's other works of his middle period include incidental music for Graniya va Diarmid, tomonidan ijro etilgan Jorj Mur va W. B. Yeats (1901), and for Starlight Express, a play based on a story by Algernon Blekvud (1916). Of the former, Yeats called Elgar's music "wonderful in its heroic melancholy".[142] Elgar also wrote a number of songs during his peak period, of which Reed observes, "it cannot be said that he enriched the vocal repertory to the same extent as he did that of the orchestra."[127]

Final years and posthumous completions

After the Cello Concerto, Elgar completed no more large-scale works. He made arrangements of works by Bach, Handel and Shopin, in distinctively Elgarian orchestration,[3] and once again turned his youthful notebooks to use for the Bolalar xonasi (1931). His other compositions of this period have not held a place in the regular repertory.[2] For most of the rest of the twentieth century, it was generally agreed that Elgar's creative impulse ceased after his wife's death. Anthony Payne's elaboration of the sketches for Elgar's Third Symphony led to a reconsideration of this supposition. Elgar left the opening of the symphony complete in full score, and those pages, along with others, show Elgar's orchestration changed markedly from the richness of his pre-war work. Gramofon described the opening of the new work as something "thrilling ... unforgettably gaunt".[143] Payne also subsequently produced a performing version of the sketches for a sixth Dabdabali vaziyat, premyerasi soat Proms 2006 yil avgustda.[144] Elgar's sketches for a piano concerto dating from 1913 were elaborated by the composer Robert Walker and first performed in August 1997 by the pianist Devid Ouen Norris. The realisation has since been extensively revised.[145]

Edward Elgar, by Percival Hedley, 1905

Views of Elgar's stature have varied in the decades since his music came to prominence at the beginning of the twentieth century. Richard Strauss, as noted, hailed Elgar as a progressive composer; even the hostile reviewer in Kuzatuvchi, unimpressed by the thematic material of the First Symphony in 1908, called the orchestration "magnificently modern".[146] Hans Richter rated Elgar as "the greatest modern composer" in any country, and Richter's colleague Arthur Nikisch considered the First Symphony "a masterpiece of the first order" to be "justly ranked with the great symphonic models – Beethoven and Brahms."[45] By contrast, the critic W. J. Tyorner, in the mid-twentieth century, wrote of Elgar's "Najot armiyasi symphonies,"[125] va Gerbert fon Karajan deb nomlangan Enigma Variations "second-hand Brahms".[147] Elgar's immense popularity was not long-lived. After the success of his First Symphony and Violin Concerto, his Second Symphony and Cello Concerto were politely received but without the earlier wild enthusiasm. His music was identified in the public mind with the Edvard davri, and after the First World War he no longer seemed a progressive or modern composer. In the early 1920s, even the First Symphony had only one London performance in more than three years.[2] Genri Vud and younger conductors such as Boult, Sargent and Barbirolli championed Elgar's music, but in the recording catalogues and the concert programmes of the middle of the century his works were not well represented.[3][148]

In 1924, the music scholar Edvard J. Dent wrote an article for a German music journal in which he identified four features of Elgar's style that gave offence to a section of English opinion (namely, Dent indicated, the academic and snobbish section): "too emotional", "not quite free from vulgarity", "pompous", and "too deliberately noble in expression".[149] This article was reprinted in 1930 and caused controversy.[150] In the later years of the century there was, in Britain at least, a revival of interest in Elgar's music. The features that had offended austere taste in the inter-war years were seen from a different perspective. In 1955, the reference book Yozuvlar bo'yicha qo'llanma wrote of the Edwardian background during the height of Elgar's career:

Boastful self-confidence, emotional vulgarity, material extravagance, a ruthless philistinism expressed in tasteless architecture and every kind of expensive yet hideous accessory: such features of a late phase of Imperial England are faithfully reflected in Elgar's larger works and are apt to prove indigestible today. But if it is difficult to overlook the bombastic, the sentimental, and the trivial elements in his music, the effort to do so should nevertheless be made, for the sake of the many inspired pages, the power and eloquence and lofty pathos, of Elgar's best work. ... Anyone who doubts the fact of Elgar's genius should take the first opportunity of hearing Gerontiyning orzusi, which remains his masterpiece, as it is his largest and perhaps most deeply felt work; the symphonic study, Falstaff; the Introduction and Allegro for Strings; The Enigma Variations; and the Violoncello Concerto.[148]

By the 1960s, a less severe view was being taken of the Edwardian era. In 1966 the critic Frank Xouus wrote that Elgar reflected the last blaze of opulence, expansiveness and full-blooded life, before World War I swept so much away. In Howes's view, there was a touch of vulgarity in both the era and Elgar's music, but "a composer is entitled to be judged by posterity for his best work. ... Elgar is historically important for giving to English music a sense of the orchestra, for expressing what it felt like to be alive in the Edwardian age, for conferring on the world at least four unqualified masterpieces, and for thereby restoring England to the comity of musical nations."[149]

Composers who admired Elgar included (top) Sibelius (l) va Richard Strauss and (below) Vaughan Uilyams (l) va Stravinskiy

In 1967 the critic and analyst David Cox considered the question of the supposed Englishness of Elgar's music. Cox noted that Elgar disliked folk-songs and never used them in his works, opting for an idiom that was essentially German, leavened by a lightness derived from French composers including Berlioz and Gounod. How then, asked Cox, could Elgar be "the most English of composers"? Cox found the answer in Elgar's own personality, which "could use the alien idioms in such a way as to make of them a vital form of expression that was his and his alone. And the personality that comes through in the music is English."[125] This point about Elgar's transmuting his influences had been touched on before. 1930 yilda The Times wrote, "When Elgar's first symphony came out, someone attempted to prove that its main tune on which all depends was like the Grail theme in Parsifal. ... but the attempt fell flat because everyone else, including those who disliked the tune, had instantly recognized it as typically 'Elgarian', while the Grail theme is as typically Wagnerian."[151] As for Elgar's "Englishness", his fellow-composers recognised it: Richard Strauss and Stravinskiy made particular reference to it,[45] va Sibelius called him, "the personification of the true English character in music ... a noble personality and a born aristocrat".[45]

Among Elgar's admirers there is disagreement about which of his works are to be regarded as masterpieces. The Enigma Variations are generally counted among them.[152] Gerontiyning orzusi has also been given high praise by Elgarians,[153] and the Cello Concerto is similarly rated.[153] Many rate the Violin Concerto equally highly, but some do not. Sackville-West omitted it from the list of Elgar masterpieces in Yozuvlar bo'yicha qo'llanma,[154] and in a long analytical article in Musiqiy choraklik, Daniel Gregori Meyson criticised the first movement of the concerto for a "kind of sing-songiness ... as fatal to noble rhythm in music as it is in poetry."[77] Falstaff also divides opinion. It has never been a great popular favourite,[155] and Kennedy and Reed identify shortcomings in it.[156] A Musiqiy Times 1957 centenary symposium on Elgar led by Vaughan Williams, by contrast, several contributors share Erik Blom bu fikr Falstaff is the greatest of all Elgar's works.[157]

The two symphonies divide opinion even more sharply. Mason rates the Second poorly for its "over-obvious rhythmic scheme", but calls the First "Elgar's masterpiece. ... It is hard to see how any candid student can deny the greatness of this symphony."[77] However, in the 1957 centenary symposium, several leading admirers of Elgar express reservations about one or both symphonies.[157] In the same year, Roger Fiske wrote in Gramofon, "For some reason few people seem to like the two Elgar symphonies equally; each has its champions and often they are more than a little bored by the rival work."[158] Tanqidchi Jon Uorrak wrote, "There are no sadder pages in symphonic literature than the close of the First Symphony's Adagio, as horn and trombones twice softly intone a phrase of utter grief",[159] whereas to Michael Kennedy, the movement is notable for its lack of anguished yearning and angst and is marked instead by a "benevolent tranquillity."[160]

Despite the fluctuating critical assessment of the various works over the years, Elgar's major works taken as a whole have in the twenty-first century recovered strongly from their neglect in the 1950s. Yozuvlar bo'yicha qo'llanma in 1955 could list only one currently available recording of the First Symphony, none of the Second, one of the Violin Concerto, two of the Cello Concerto, two of the Enigma Variations, bittasi Falstaff, and none of Gerontiyning orzusi. Since then there have been multiple recordings of all the major works. More than thirty recordings have been made of the First Symphony since 1955, for example, and more than a dozen of Gerontiyning orzusi.[161] Similarly, in the concert hall, Elgar's works, after a period of neglect, are once again frequently programmed. The Elgar Jamiyati 's website, in its diary of forthcoming performances, lists performances of Elgar's works by orchestras, soloists and conductors across Europe, North America and Australia.[162]

Elgar was knighted in 1904, and in 1911 he was appointed a member of the Faxriy xizmat ordeni. In 1920 he received the Cross of Commander of the Belgian Toj tartibi; in 1924 he was made Shoh Musikining ustasi; the following year he received the Gold Medal of the Royal Philharmonic Society; and in 1928 he was appointed a Ritsar qo'mondoni ning Qirollik Viktoriya ordeni (KCVO). Between 1900 and 1931, Elgar received honorary degrees from the Universities of Kembrij, Durham, Lids, Oksford, Yel (AQSH), Aberdin, G'arbiy Pensilvaniya (USA), Birmingham and London. Foreign academies of which he was made a member were Regia Santa Cecilia Accademia, Rim; Accademia del Reale Istituto Musicale, Florence; Académie des Beaux Arts, Parij; Frantsiya instituti; va Amerika akademiyasi. In 1931 he was created a Baronet, of Broadheath in the County of Worcester.[163] In 1933 he was promoted within the Royal Victorian Order to Knight Grand Cross (GCVO).[164] In Kennedy's words, he "shamelessly touted" for a tengdoshlik, lekin behuda.[2] Yilda Kim kim, post-First World War, he claimed to have been awarded "several Imperial rus and German decorations (lapsed)".[165]

Elgar was offered, but declined, the office of Hereford meri (despite not being a member of its city council) when he lived in the city in 1905.[166] The same year he was made an honorary Freeman of the City of Worcester.[167]

The house in Lower Broadheath where Elgar was born is now the Elgar tug'ilgan joy muzeyi, devoted to his life and work. Elgar's daughter, Carice, helped to found the museum in 1936 and bequeathed to it much of her collection of Elgar's letters and documents on her death in 1970. Carice left Elgar manuscripts to musical colleges: Qora ritsar ga Trinity musiqa kolleji; Qirol Olaf uchun Qirollik musiqa akademiyasi; Musiqa ishlab chiqaruvchilari to Birmingham University; the Cello Concerto to the Qirollik musiqa kolleji; Shohlik uchun Bodleian kutubxonasi; and other manuscripts to the Britaniya muzeyi.[168] The Elgar Society dedicated to the composer and his works was formed in 1951. The University of Birmingham's Special Collections contain an archive of letters written by Elgar.[169]

Elgar's statue at the end of Worcester High Street stands facing the cathedral, only yards from where his father's shop once stood. Another statue of the composer by Rose Garrard is at the top of Church Street in Malvern, overlooking the town and giving visitors an opportunity to stand next to the composer in the shadow of the Hills that he so often regarded. In September 2005, a third statue sculpted by Jemma Pearson was unveiled near Hereford sobori in honour of his many musical and other associations with the city. It depicts Elgar with his bicycle. From 1999 until early 2007, new Bank of England twenty pound notes featured a portrait of Elgar. The change to remove his image generated controversy, particularly because 2007 was the 150th anniversary of Elgar's birth. From 2007 the Elgar notes were phased out, ceasing to be qonuniy to'lov vositasi 2010 yil 30 iyunda.[170]

There are around 65 roads in the UK named after Elgar, including six in the counties of Herefordshire va Vorsestershire.[171] Elgar had three locomotives named in his honour.[n 18]

Elgar's life and music have inspired works of literature including the novel Gerontius[107] va bir nechta pyesalar. Elgar's Rondo, a 1993 stage play by Devid Peyll depicts the dead Jaeger offering ghostly advice on Elgar's musical development.[177] Pownall also wrote a radio play, Elgar's Third (1994);[178] another Elgar-themed radio play is Alik Rou "s The Dorabella Variation (2003).[179] Devid Rudkin 's BBC television "Bugungi kun uchun o'ynang " Pendaning Fen (1974)[180] deals with themes including sex and adolescence, spying, and snobbery, with Elgar's music, chiefly Gerontiyning orzusi, as its background. In one scene, a ghostly Elgar whispers the secret of the "Enigma" tune to the youthful central character, with an injunction not to reveal it. Elgar on the Journey to Hanley, tomonidan yozilgan roman Keyt Alldritt (1979), tells of the composer's attachment to Dora Penny, later Mrs Powell, (depicted as "Dorabella" in the Enigma Variations), and covers the fifteen years from their first meeting in the mid-1890s to the genesis of the Violin Concerto when, in the novel, Dora has been supplanted in Elgar's affections by Alice Stuart-Wortley.[181]

Perhaps the best-known work depicting Elgar is Ken Rassel 's 1962 BBC television film Elgar, made when the composer was still largely out of fashion. This hour-long film contradicted the view of Elgar as a jingoistic and bombastic composer, and evoked the more pastoral and melancholy side of his character and music.[182]
