Sea Pictures (Op. 37) Conductor Score - Sandstone Classical Collection Edward Elgar

This newly edited version of Elgar's 'Sea Pictures' matches up this conductor score with a new set of orchestra parts and piano vocal score (available separately). Previous versions of this work by other publishers are traditionally littered with mistakes and wrong notes / instructions, which have been fixed in this edition, including the addition of rehearsal marks which align the conductor score with the piano vocal score and orchestra parts. Elgar's 1899 work is a song cycle consisting of five songs: Sea Slumber Song, In Haven (Capri), Sabbath Morning at Sea, Where Corals Lie and The Swimmer. It has become one of the most popular works for contraltos and mezzo-sopranos and is frequently a major study work at conservatoires and universities.
