Summary

Throughout his career, Elgar sought confidants in the publishing world, and when he found someone to whom he could open his heart, the letters that followed were among the most arresting ever written on the creative life. In this comprehensive collection, Jerrold Northrop Moore has gathered every letter of importance between Elgar and his publishers, including for the first time the correspondence between Elgar and his finest friend, the publishing manager of Novello, A.J. Jaeger--"Nimrod" of the "Enigma" Variations --as well as the letters Elgar wrote to Alfred Littleton, the chairman of Novello, to Keith Prowse, his final publisher, and to many others. These letters reach far back into the creative process, often to the formation of ideas and projects, providing a rare record of the vital relationship between a composer and his publisher.
