Edward Elgar and Ralph Vaughan Williams were prominent English composers whose works significantly shaped 20th-century Classical Music. Elgar, known for his orchestral and choral compositions, such as the "Enigma Variations" and "Pomp and Circumstance Marches," often infused his music with a sense of nationalism and emotional depth. Vaughan Williams, on the other hand, drew inspiration from English Folk Music and is celebrated for his symphonies, choral works, and the "Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis." Both composers played crucial roles in reviving and redefining English music during their respective eras.
