Elgar’s Andante and March was taken from a set of pieces by Edward Elgar for violin and piano that I used to play with my daughter when she was a young violin student. I appreciated that a young violinist could play music that had beautiful harmonies to enjoy. I arranged the first and last pieces of the Elgar set for a concert by the string orchestra at Colorado Mesa University, which they performed without a conductor. The pieces bring back fond memories of my daughter’s youthful enthusiasm for the violin.
