The two symphonies in this collection represent Elgar's bestand most powerful work.    The Symphony No. 1 in A-flat Major (Op. 55), termed by Grove's Dictionary ofMusic and Musicians as "the majestic opening of the richest period in Elgar'scareer," created a sensation and was performed more than 100 times in the yearof its debut.
