His first ever recording was Carissima in January 1914, recorded in fact before the public premiere. There’s good depth to this and the pizzicati register well. The set, as noted, isn’t chronological, so the recordings jump around in time and space somewhat.
Elgar deserves acknowledgement as a recording pioneer, one of the first great composers to record significant amounts of his own music. We should doff our hats to him for having the vision to embrace the new technology so readily and to see its value as a way of disseminating his music.
