He was not only an excellent composer but it appears he had one of the oddest, nappiest mustaches I think I've ever seen.

He should have cut it off and glued it on his forehead, LOL.

Check out his Quintet for Piano and Strings in A minor, written in 1917. We’re doing it this summer at the Seattle Chamber Music Festival.

Thanks for the ping. It’s amazing how little I know of Elgar’s music beyond Pomp and Circumstance. I guess I need some self-education.
