John Smyth praises his latest purchase of
>Elgar's "The Kingdom" with Hickox/LSO. (Chan8875)
and then asks:
>Is "The Kingdom" equally satisfying?
I imagine so. But, seriously, do you mean The Apostles? The Apostles is
my favorite of the mature Elgar oratorios - more dramatic than either
Gerontius or The Kingdom.
