Worcester Cathedral Festival Brings Elgar Works to Life
The Worcester festival, held in the cathedral, conducts all performances as religious gatherings with no applause except for one secular concert. Conductors are organists of the host cathedral, composer-conductors take precedence, and certain modern works are excluded. Elgar dominates the tradition, and this year offers performances that reveal how his music spoke to him in the cathedral’s vast, hushed spaces.
