Product Description

Chanson de Matin (Morning Song), Op. 15, No. 2, is a musical work composed by Edward Elgar for violin and piano, and later orchestrated by the composer. Its first publication was in 1899, though it is thought that it was almost certainly written in 1889 or 1890.

Elgar also composed a "companion" piece, Chanson de Nuit, Op. 15, No. 1. To some critics Chanson de Matin is the less profound of the two works, however, its fresh melodic appeal has made it more popular.

The orchestral version of the work was published two years later, and first performed, together with Chanson de Nuit, at a Queen's Hall Promenade Concert conducted by Henry Wood on 14 September 1901.

Elgar briefly quotes the melody in the second movement of his String Quartet in E minor of 1918.

The music also lends itself perfectly to a brass quintet setting. See and hear for yourself!
