Music for Pomp and Circumstance. Grand music for coronations, for ceremonial occasions, for matters of state and for formal dancing is brought together in this special album. 400 years of quintessentially British music, from Matthew Locke to Eric Coates, centered around the peerless style of Sir Edward Elgar, whose 'Pomp and Circumstance' marches are familiar to US all.
