DVD Reviews of Elgar's Tenth Muse - The Life of an English Composer
DVD Review: unforgettably moving performances
Summary: 5 Stars
As a longtime lover of Sir Edward Elgars music, I thoughly enjoyed this video. I was not aware of Sir Edwards affair with the pretty young violinist, Ms.d'aranyi as intelligently portrayed by Selma Alispahic. But for me, it was Faith Brooks marvelous performance as Alice Elgar, Sir Edwards beautiful,frail and dying wife that moved me to tears. It appeared both genuine and unforgettable. Anyone who sees this moving portrayal cannot but be impressed. She was so devoted to her husband and this has been well documented. And, of course, we cannot forget James Fox's understated performance as Sir Edward Elgar himself. The walk in the park and the conversation with Ms. Alispahic showed a side of Sir Edward I never knew and the tension built up between the two characters was very well dramatised with the morose Elgar and the impatient young lady. See this video for yourself and judge the fine acting for all its worth, and then decide if you agree with me that it was wonderful in both attention to detail, and atmosphere. I say Bravo to everyone involved in this moving little fantasy with the wonderful accompaniment of Elgars music. Bo Biffa
