Elgar's Concert Overture "In the South" was inspired by a holiday in the Italian resort of Alassio in 1903. The bad weather he and his wife endured didn't prevent him from composing this brilliant symphonic tone-poem. It is superbly played here by the glorious Philadelphia Orchestra under its then Music Director, Riccardo Muti, in a 1986 radio broadcast.

  • Magnifica esecuzione! Eccellente Muti, ed eccezionale la Philadelphia Orchestra a mio avviso una tra le dieci migliori orchestre del mondo. Ebbi la fortuna d'ascoltarla molti anni fa a Genova, sempre diretta dal M° Muti: un concerto che, non scorderò mai. Veramente una splendida compagine orchestrale!
