Elgar's complete sketches for the 3rd Symphony, exactly as the composer left them, are brought to life by pianist David Owen Norris, Robert Gibbs playing Reed's own violin and the BBCSO with a commentary from Anthony Payne.

Birtwistle's awe-inspiring masterpiece is a key work in the development of post-war opera, groundbreaking in its fusion of music, song, drama, myth and electronics. The three discs are accompanied by a facsimile of Peter Zinovieff's remarkable libretto.
