Elgar did'nt die. The gods of music grew envious of the mere mortals for keeping him to long. So they recliamed him.

This basic theme was used as the background music for a great, unfortunately mostly forgotten film, "Young Winston" with Simon Ward in the title role, who did a magnificent job of portraying just that...a young Winston Churchill.

Great job, man, and it does the most important thing of all: disassociates this marvellous piece of music from military connotations. Elgar was a romantic who loved the countryside, not war. Your video captures the universality of his great Enigma suite much more than pictures of Churchill and the Union Jack ever could.

@kasha1932 Many thx for for your (and others) kind words, tho all credit must belong to the composer.
Credit also to conductor Sir Adrian Boult (1889 – 1983) who championed Elgars often neglected music and produced the classic version heard here.
