Album Cover
Sir Edward Elgar / William Boughton, English String Orchestra
Works For String Orchestra

Album UK 1983 on Nimbus Records label
Classical (Neo-Romantic)

Sponsored/supported by Boehm of Malvern, England, Limited ("International Creators of Porcelain Art"). The royalties from the sale of this record were donated to the Elgar Foundation, to "maintain and preserve Elgar's Birthplace at Lower Broadheath near Worcester" (per letter reproduced on the back of the sleeve). The sleeve boasts of "Super Analogue Mastering" at 45RPM, and the record, although of conventional 12" LP size plays correctly at that speed.
