Marvellous Elgar Hippiefried. For me the tonalities of his music catch something that is quintessentially English. I don't mean the bluster of the Pomp and Circumstance marches, but rather the haunting hints of church music and an aching melancholy. Lovely stuff. If you like this sort out his Wand Of Youth suite.
Moving on a century this is probably Michael Nyman's finest piece of music. Nyman's film music is usually irritating. But this was written for a TV documentary about 20 years ago about the aftermath of a terrible earthquake in Armenia. A really haunting piece of music sung by a religious choir from Armenia.
