Description on Youtube:
BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Osmo Vanska conductor, 1998 Proms 1998年逍遙音樂會,英國廣播電台蘇格蘭交響樂團,芬蘭指揮家Osmo Vanska。 As a boy Elgar composed some tunes for use in a play staged by the young members of the Elgar family. He noted the tunes down in a sketchbook and four decades later he based the two Wand of Youth Suites on the sketches. He gave the suites the opus number 1 in recognition that they were his earliest surviving compositions, albeit now scored for full orchestra with the mature Elgar's mastery of orchestration.
