Pomp and Circumstance

Five military marches by Edward Elgar, Op. 39, originally intended as a set of six. The first contains, as a trio, the tune afterwards used in the Coronation Ode to the words ‘Land of hope and glory’. The title of the set comes from Othello: ‘pride, pomp and circumstance of glorious war’. Nos. 1-4 were composed 1901-07, and No. 5 in 1930.
