| msgman | posted 30-Jun-2001 2:37pm Handel's Messiah, if you count Handel as English. Otherwise, the Enigma Variations by Elgar is the first that springs to mind. |

| natsim | posted 30-Jun-2001 3:27pm Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Tallis by R.Vaughan Williams. I haven't heard it for years, so I don't know why it popped into my head, especially since I'm currently rehearsing "the Lark Ascending" by the same composer. Strange. |
| Dolemite | posted 30-Jun-2001 3:47pm NO! Get thee to a nunery! |
| Jemmy | posted 30-Jun-2001 3:51pm I don't think I know anyone who is english. I'd have to go look at my violin music. |
| heyzeus1 | posted 30-Jun-2001 4:57pm i dont know which ones are or were english. i like ravell's bolero (sp?), but bach's fugue in d minor will always be my favorite |
| Zang | posted 30-Jun-2001 5:15pm Sorry folks! I know this isn't very fun, but I felt compelled to do it because it has been obsessing me for the last couple of years. I bought this book called "British Music of Our Time (1946)" and some of the stuff they were saying in there, I thought was really off the mark. I felt that I had to get some kind of consensus as to which English composers and works were popular, or widely known now-a-days. I drew my own conclusions, but I thought I would run it by you guys, and see what popped up... |

| Gamera | (reply to Zang) posted 30-Jun-2001 11:58pm So how does what you found here compare to what the book was saying or to your own conclusions? |
