Finally got the disc and am extremely impressed by the Elgar: not the Percy Young versions at all: a new suite of material from the opera, most of it previously unheard. Those hoping for the popular Burlesco or Sarabande will be disappointed, but there's about half an hour of gorgeous 'new' Elgar. Not at all a replacement, rather a complement to the Young suite and extended reconstruction. Yates seems to imagine it as something like the symphonic suite Elgar might have made from the opera.
