Product Description
One of Elgar's best known pieces of music, arranged wind quintet.
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.
