Edward Elgar wrote the Enigma Variations (Variations on an Original Theme, Opus 36) in 1898 and first performed it in 1899.
Edward Elgar, born on June 2, 1857, was noted for his keyboard improvisation in his early years. Later in life he was a great organist, violinist, composer, and conductor. Some of his more famous works include Pomp and Circumstances Marches and the Enigma Variations.
Edward Elgar was significantly influenced by the music of Richard Wagner, especially in terms of orchestration and dramatic expression. Elgar admired Wagner's ability to create powerful emotional narratives through music, which can be seen in Elgar's own works, such as the "Enigma Variations." Additionally, the English musical tradition and composers like Hubert Parry also played a role in shaping Elgar's style.
Oh, dude, was Elgar Jewish? Nah, he wasn't part of the chosen people. Edward Elgar, the English composer, was actually raised as a Roman Catholic. So, yeah, he wasn't Jewish. But hey, music is for everyone, right?
