Edward Elgar’s concerto for violoncello, his last major work, is a cleanly structured and emotionally charged composition. It is no wonder that this work is of central importance in the cello literature. Jonathan Del Mar’s editorial skills show themselves in the  exacting  placement of dynamics, articulation and expression markings. The edition  restores all  Elgar’s solo cello fingerings and bowings and offers a facsimile of the  original solo cello part  in the critical commentary. Jonathan Del Mar also documents the performing  tradition of the  work and its recording under Elgar’s baton.<br>
