2018-04-14 – 2018-04-15The Spirit of England, op. 80: I. The Fourth of August: Moderato e maestoso — “Now in thy splendour go before us”. Grandioso — “The cares we hugged drop out of vision”. Poco più mosso — “Among the nations nobliest chartered”. Lento — Tempo I — “She fights the fraud that feeds desire”. Più mosso — “Endure, O Earth! and thou, awaken”. Tempo I (poco più lento) — “O wronged, untameable, unshaken”. Più lento — “Now in thy splendour go before us”. Nobilmente e grandioso, come prima — Più lentoIgor Yuzefovich, Andrew Staples, BBC Symphony Orchestra, Sir Andrew Davis6:53
