The Kingdom - Edward Elgar - Bog

The Kingdom: An Oratorio is a musical composition written by the English composer Edward Elgar in 1906. The piece is part of a larger work known as The Apostles, which is a series of oratorios based on the life of Jesus Christ and his disciples. The Kingdom focuses on the events following Christ's resurrection and the spread of his teachings throughout the world. The music is written for a large orchestra, choir, and soloists, and features a range of styles, from grand choral passages to intimate solo pieces. The text is drawn from the Bible and other religious sources, and includes passages in English and Latin. The Kingdom is considered one of Elgar's most ambitious and complex works, and is a testament to his skill as a composer of religious music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
