This is the complete score for Sir Edward Elgar 1899 song cycle, Sea Pictures, Op. 37. It consists of five songs written by a number of poets set for contralto and orchestra. The songs include: Sea Slumber Song by Roden Noel; In Haven (Capri) by Caroline Alice Elgar, the composer's wife; Sabbath Morning at Sea by Elizabeth Barrett Browning; Where Corals Lie by Richard Garnett, and The Swimmer by Adam Lindsay Gordon. Sir Edward William Elgar (1857 - 1934) was an popular English composer during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His most famous works include Enigma Variations, the Pomp, and Circumstance Marches. Many of his compositions are now an integral part of the British and international classical concert repertoire. Elgar is considered to be the first composer to make proper use of the gramophone, and he was appointed Master of the King's Musick in 1924. Classic Music Collection constitutes an extensive library of the most well-known and universally-enjoyed works of classical music ever composed, reproduced from authoritative editions for the enjoyment of musicians and music students the world over.
