Edward Elgar often features in concert programmes across the world and is particularly famous for his Cello Concerto and of course, the Enigma Variations. The BSO’s founder and principal conductor, Sir Dan Godfrey, was a fan of Elgar’s and as a consequence he conducted the orchestra in a performance of his Sea Pictures.
