About the Music

Edward Elgar (1857–1934) remains one of Britain's most beloved composers, known for works ranging from the majestic Enigma Variations to the intimate Salut d'Amour. His salon pieces, including Carissima (meaning "dearest" or "most beloved" in Italian), showcase his gift for writing tender, expressive melodies that speak directly to the heart. Composed during Elgar's Edwardian heyday, Carissima exemplifies the elegant, nostalgic character that made his lighter works so popular.

This charming miniature sits perfectly in the sunny key of G Major, allowing the violin to sing with warmth and brilliance. The solo part (approximately ABRSM Grade 7) features expressive melodic lines, lyrical phrasing, and elegant double-stopping, making it an ideal bridge between student repertoire and the professional concerto world. Our string orchestra arrangement transforms the original piano accompaniment into a lush orchestral setting that supports the soloist beautifully whilst adding rich harmonic depth.

Our MyMusicScores edition features crystal-clear engraving, carefully edited parts, and thoughtful orchestration that balances clarity with orchestral warmth – perfect for youth orchestras and student soloists.
