Thank you for posting this. Bernstein is one of my favorite conductors and I was just about to find a recording of this piece earlier today. I greatly appreciate the detailed description too, it helps with context and an easily graspable bigger picture of the piece.

Because the way to the divine is by transcendence, by real goodness, the good human action have a good message, and you can imagine what it is by the universal ethics of Kant. In this piece, we can hear the purpose of the composer, only pure greatness.
As a Christian, I’ve personally had similar feelings about mathematics. My rationale is very simplistic: who else but the Divine Creator could make the world fit together so beautifully and neatly. But I respect you or anyone's right to their chosen doctrine.

Initially, Edward Elgar had little formal education and was largely self-taught since he came from a popular-class background, hence his great merit in composition. The Enigma Variations, Op. 36, is a symphonic work comprising a theme and fourteen variations, composed by Elgar. Each variation represents an aspect of a loved one, a friend of his wife or even his editor. They are not intended to be portraits. The impulse of the music is variously inspired by aspects of their personality, their home and surroundings. The work became known as the « Enigma Variations » due to an enigmatic explanation provided by the composer. He repeatedly claimed that there was another theme, never heard, but well known, that was part of the work. There are some inconsistencies in the information provided by Elgar when subsequently asked about the riddle, which might suggest that the theme was theoretical rather than real. Elgar never revealed the solution. Various writers and musicologists have published theories and proposed possible solutions. None is completely satisfactory and it seems likely that it will always remain a mystery unless? But who is behind variation XIII? By simple superstition, the dedicatee of variation XIII would have been hidden. This variation, imbued with intense emotion, would be dedicated to a woman, Helen Weaver. Although they became engaged, the engagement was not broken off until a year later. This event caused great emotional distress for Edward Elgar. At 29, Elgar accepted a new piano student, Caroline Alice Roberts. Love at first sight is immediate, but Caroline comes from a good family and therefore an impossible love. But the heart has its reasons that reason ignores, and Caroline Alice agrees to marry Edward. This union will not be without cost for the bride, who will see herself disinherited. « Taking care of a genius is the work of a sufficiently substantial life for any woman », writes Caroline Alice Elgar in her diary intimate. Indeed, we often forget the importance of the help, encouragement and support of women in the lives of the greatest composers. Happiness is love but better. *Lucien*
I think that "Enigma Variations" (1899) by Edward Elgar may be a slow version of "Ride of the Valkyries" (1854) by Richard Wagner, and inspired by a similar thematic variation in tempo in "Night on Bald Mountain" by Modest Mussorgsky (debuted 1886).
Many composers did take inspiration from other composers, So it could be possible that Elgar took inspiration from both of those Symphony's and possibly others if I remember correctly
Does anybody - really - bother to give some comment about the characters this marvelous and unique work of Edward Elgar ? How about that magnifiscent atmosphere, before the ninth variation (Nimrod) starts, and how this Master, Leonard Bernstein, chooses such a slow Tempo ?
Western Civilization is in its death throes. I was listening calmly to this early morning. Ten minutes into this magnificent work, we are interrupted by somebody trying to sell me a truck. Ten minutes after that, I find that there is a leak proof water bottle for sale--something I could probably use as an Outdoorsman but now will never buy from them. Then, at the moment of the transition to that magnificent "Nimrod" movement--you know, that little tune played at The Cenotaph on Remembrance Day--I get slammed by a bunch of idiots twerking around with cans of Pepsi Light. America is Broken, perhaps and likely beyond repair.

We have recordings of Elgar himself conducting the Enigma Variations. Still a great recording, but I highly recommend listening to Elgar's 1926 recording for context: ruclips.net/video/VzWBDNFxaQU/видео.html
@@a.s.vanhoose1545 I never said that they had to conduct it as Elgar would have, I only pointed out that it isn't conducted how Elgar would have conducted it. And that it would be good to also listen to Elgar's own version of his piece for context. One of my favorite things is to compare old recordings against new ones of the same piece. But I don't find either recordings bad. As stated, I think this version is great.
