Each movement of the Enigma Variations is a musical sketch of someone close to Elgar, from his devoted wife to boisterous friends, including the moving and noble ‘Nimrod’. This beloved piece is both a love letter to friends and a musical puzzle, which invites you to discover characters and stories in every note.

In this family-friendly concert we guide you through the music to bring it to life, with a heavy sprinkling of fun and audience involvement throughout.
