| This is an interesting comparison of two energetic composers: romantic french Berlioz and post-romantic english Elgar. Berlioz Harold in Italy sounds like a viola concerto in some parts. Only Elgar has cello concerto.
Berlioz seems to be more melodic, fast-developing and Elgar seems to be more polyphonic, complex, repetitive and have more atmospheric pieces. Elgar melodies seem to be less smooth and more leaping.
Comparing vocal pieces: Elgar Sea pictures is for solo mezzo-soprano and sounds descriptive. Brelioz vocal pieces are more dramatic and can contain several voices.
This island seems difficult to me, I would be glad if someone posts useful recommendations here. (Berlioz, Elgar) |
