Recorded: Kingsway Hall, London, December 1979 (op.50); February 1972

'Solti has grasped more firmly than any conductor of the work [Symphony No.1] since Elgar himself the two crucial matters; that the "motto" theme must always be given movement and lift for all its "nobilmente"; and that the varied metronomic pulses called for in the score must be drawn together through an expression of some terseness - the indulgences will take care of themselves ... Solti's record is a deeply moving experience ... Solti has given us above all an Elgar we can share with others.' Gramophone (August 1972)
