    Extractions: The First World War was at its height when Elgar was approached in November 1915 to write the incidental music for a play to be staged in the West End of London at the end of the year. The play, The Starlight Express , had been adapted by Violet Pearn from the novel A Prisoner in Fairyland by Algernon Blackwood . As demanded by the times, the story is a nonsensical piece of escapism. A family of children, trapped in the oppressive world of adults, forms a secret society whose members collect stardust and live in star caves. The seek to rescue their parents from an earthly existence and eventually succeed, taking them also to a star cave. The story contains strong similarities not only with J M Barrie 's Peter Pan but also with Elgar's own childhood musical fantasies from which he subsequently extracted the two

The locomotive was built at English Electric Vulcan Foundry Works, Newton-Le-Willows and was delivered new to British Railways on the 12th March 1968. Numbered D407 the loco entered service on the 16th March allocated to the London Midland Region Western Lines, until June of that year when she was allocated to D05 Stoke-on-Trent Division. On the 2nd July 1971 she received her first light overhaul at Crewe Works and was reallocated to Crewe Diesel depot in May 1973. April 1974, saw the loco entered Crewe Locomotive Works for an Intermediate overhaul and re-enter service carrying her new TOPS number of 50007. The following month saw 50007 reallocated to the Western Region and allocated to Laira depot, Plymouth. With electrification complete on the Midland Region, the entire Class 50 fleet was eventually transferred to the Western Region. Being a small class of locomotives (50) the Western Region had the perfect opportunity to name the class and decided to name them all after Navy Warships. 50007 was named ' Hercules ' on the 6th April 1978, without ceremony, the plates being fitted at its home depot of Laira. With the work load at Crewe Works expanding, a decision was reach to move all future overhauls on class 50's to Doncaster Works. 50007's first visit to these works was during July 1979 when she arrived for an Intermediate overhaul. In order to prolong the life expectancy of these locomotives, a decision was taken to complete refurbish the class during the early 1980's, which involved removing various items from the original design. 50007 arrived at Doncaster Works on 13th September 1982 and re-entered traffic in the new striking BR Large-Logo livery on 8th March 1983.

    Extractions: Born near Worcester in England, the son of a piano-tuner and owner of a music shop, Elgar was self-taught in composition and began his career by writing pieces for local perfomances. He became the leading English composer of his generation and a significant figure among late Romantic European musicians. In 1889 he married one of his piano pupils, Caroline Roberts, and moved to London. Success came later, after his return to the West Country, with the completion of the "Enigma Variations", first performed in London in 1899. Elgar was capable of expressing dominant and patriotic themes in his music. His Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1, adapted for the coronation of King Edward VII, is extremely popular even today. After the death of his wife in 1920 he seemed to lose his previous inspiration and wrote relatively little. He died before completing the work on his third symphony. Edward Elgar Works Elgar wrote a number of oratorios. "The Dream of Gerontius", based on a poem by John Cardinal Newman, is a remarkable study of a man on his deathbed.

    Extractions: Komponisten Edward Elgar Biographie Hauptwerke Photo Gallery Home Page Die Biographie von Edward Elgar Englischer Komponist: sein Vater war Organist und Musiklehrer in Worcester und gab seinem Sohn soliden Geigen und Klavierunterricht. Als der Fünfzehnjährige dann die Schule verließ, kam er in eine Anwaltskanzlei und arbeitete dort ein Jahr, bis ihm klar wurde, daß auch er Musiker werden wollte. Glücklicherweise lebte er in einer musikalischen Umwelt und so wurde er bald Assistent seines Vaters und zugleich Leiter eines Gesangsvereins sowie des Orchesters einer Irrenanstalt. Durch Erprobung seiner Kompositionen vor diesen wenig anspruchsvollen Foren gewann er Zutrauen in seine kompositorischen Fähigkeiten. Mit der Ouvertüre „Froissart" Op. 19 überzeugte Elgar 1890 auch eine Anzahl Kritiker. Danach schrieb er einige populäre Chorwerke, eine Gattung, die damals - es gab ja mehr Chorvereinigungen als aufführbare Stücke in England - sehr gefragt waren. 1899 folgten die „Enigma-Variations" op. 36, eine Reihe musikalischer Porträts, die Elgar als Komponisten von subtiler und tiefer Empfindung erweisen. Ein Jahr später erlebte ein weiteres geniales Werk eine katastrophale Uraufführung, gelangte aber kurz darauf zu internationalem Erfolg – „The Dream of Gerontius".

    Extractions: Nace el 2 de junio de 1857 en la aldea de Broadheath cerca de Worcester en la región central de Inglaterra. De orígenes humildes, creció rodeado de música. Su padre tenía una tienda en Worcester que vendía instrumentos y partituras musicales, y había bastante talento entre su familia y sus amigos para formar varios pequeños grupos instrumentales. Su primer intento de establecerse en los círculos musicales londinenses fracasó; al cabo de 18 meses de privaciones y desengaños (1889-1891), Elgar volvió, con su esposa Alice, a Worcestershire. Alice poseía una fe inquebrantable en el talento de su marido: gracias a su aliento constante, la fama de Elgar en los West Midlands continuaba a crecer con la composición de obras sustanciales para coros de la comarca y para el Three Choirs Festival, entre ellos King Olaf (1896), The Light of Life (1896) y Caractacus (1898). El éxito llegó con la presentación en el Festival de Birmingham de 1899 y 1900 respectivamente de las Enigma Variations y el oratorio The Dream of Gerontius. Desde entonces, la subida de la popularidad de Elgar fue rapidísima: una serie de obras recibidas con gran entusiasmo, (que incluían otros dos oratorios The Apostles, 1903, y The Kingdom, 1906), el título de "Sir" en 1904, la primera sinfonía de 1907 que tuvo más de cien representaciones en el primer año después de su composición, doctorados Honoris causa de varias universidades británicas y norteamericanos, y la Order of Merit en 1911.

    Biography of the composer from Polygram Records and links to recordings.  
    http://www.deccaclassics.com/music/composers/elgar.html
    
    Extractions: (Broadheath, 1857 - Worcester 1934) English composer, conductor and violinist Probably the greatest British composer of all time. His music was inspired by his cultural interests and his love for the English countryside, as well as by the music of other great European composers. In his output we encounter every genre of classical music except opera. Elgar and his music embody the essence of England. Elgar's father was a piano tuner and owned a music shop. The boy took lessons locally in organ, violin and other instruments. He amassed as much musical knowledge and experience as he could in his father's shop, church music activities and local music societies. Plans to study in Leipzig never materialised due to lack of money, but he took violin lessons with Adolf Pollitzer in London. At the age of 16 he became a lifelong freelance musician, and never held a regular post. His career got off to a slow start. He was the assistant, later successor, to his father as organist at St George's Catholic Church. He also played violin in various orchestras. During the 1890s his first compositions were publicly performed and gradually found recognition. In 1897 his Imperial March, composed for Queen Victoria's Jubilee, brought him success, and his fame spread with works such as the Enigma Variations, the Cockaigne Overture and the Pomp and Circumstance Marches (the first of which was to become world-famous as Land of Hope and Glory). He wrote the finest English oratorio since the time of Handel, The Dream of Gerontius. In 1920 Elgar's wife died, and for the remaining 14 years of his life he published little of importance.

    http://elgar-enigma.tripod.com/
    
    Extractions: The 'Enigma' Variations Elgar's 'Enigma' Variations had its first performance in June 1899, and audiences and critics were quick to realise that a masterpiece had come among them. It has stayed at the forefront of the orchestral repertoire ever since, and the Nimrod variation in particular has achieved a very special place in the nation's affections.  Patrick Turner's authoritative book, written to celebrate the centenary of this much-loved work, takes a refreshing new look at the circumstances surrounding its composition, together with its associated puzzles, making extensive reference to a wide range of source material. Some of this appears here in published form for the first time, including - surprisingly - the first ever reference to an enigma in connection with the work.  He offers an explanation of how the enigma itself came into being, and a new solution that is unique insofar as it is the first time a tune has been put forward that actually fits Elgar's theme perfectly.  Copiously but unobtrusively annotated, this fascinating book makes a valuable contribution to Elgar scholarship whilst at the same time remaining eminently readable. It will appeal to specialists and non-specialists alike.
