Talk:The Spirit of England

error
If Mr. Greenfield was writing about The Spirit of England ending with Land of Hope and Glory, he was in error and possibly was confusing it with the earlier Coronation Ode. In any case, what is written here is certainly misleading and needs to be explained or corrected. I cannot supply a reference except actually listening to The Spirit of England.

What Elgar does quote in the first movement, at some length, is the Demon's Chorus from The Dream of Gerontius. This should be mentioned.

 * Later: I've unearthed something ad rem by Jerrold Northrop Moore, no less, and will return to the article tomorrow, I hope.  Tim riley  talk    17:23, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
 * I've added a few sentences and pruned the Guardian error.  Tim riley  talk    10:14, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
