Edward Elgar:

Concert Overture "In the South" (Alassio) Op.50 (recorded 1954)
Sea Pictures Op.37 (Gladys Ripley, Contralto) (recorded 1954)
Variations on an Original Theme (Enigma) Op.36 (recorded 1953)


Critics who reviewed his concerts in the 1950s then found George Weldon possessed with 'decision, resource, delicacy, restraint, a perfectly clear beat and the kind of personality to win an orchestra's allegiance ...' qualities well illustrated in the recordings on this CD (Elgar was one of Weldon's favourite composers).
