  1. Nocturne, for orchestra - Morfydd Llwyn Owen
  2. Concerto for cello and orchestra in E minor Op 85 - Sir Edward Elgar
  3. Variations on an original theme, 'Enigma' Op 36 - Sir Edward Elgar

When Edward Elgar started to improvise a little tune at his piano one day, considering how a group of his closest friends might play that tune, he gave birth to one of the greatest masterpieces of English music. The ‘Enigma’ variations are uplifting and resigned, humorous and profound. Elgar’s dazzling, virtuosic orchestral showpiece comes after his acerbic, embittered and sorrowful Cello Concerto written in less happy times, and the rediscovered gem that is Morfydd Llwyn Owen’s sumptuous Nocturne.
