Brahms: 16 Hungarian Dances, Variations on a Theme by Haydn by Antal Doráti

Hungarian Dance No. 4 in F-sharp minor, Book I, WoO 1 (Orchestra): Poco sostenuto (Orch. Hallén) (2024 Remastered, London 1965)

Elegy is a beautifully reflective and highly emotional work, subtitled, "In Memoriam".
The stark contrast of emotion portrayed in the music is simply breathtaking, from the calm, sombre opening, which builds to a most powerful outpouring at its height, before returning to the soft yearning of heartfelt grief at its poignant conclusion. Elegy is ideal for rememberance services concerts etc. It is also available for the Brass Band from Kingfisher Music Publishing.

"Prince Igor is an opera in four acts with a prologue. It was composed by Alexander Borodin. The composer adapted the libretto from the East Slavic epic The Lay of Igor's Host, which recounts the campaign of Russian prince Igor Svyatoslavich against the invading Polovtsian tribes in 1185. The opera was left unfinished upon the composer's death in 1887 and was edited and completed by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov and Alexander Glazunov. It was first performed in St. Petersburg, Russia, in 1890." (source: Wikipedia)
