Elgar - Nimrod (Enigma Variations) - Chicago Symphony Orchestra cond. Daniel Barenboim at Carnegie Hall

I've no idea what the "enigma" of the variations is meant to be... or quite why this most English of tunes should be named after an ancient near-eastern black dictator whose mother is credited with establishing the world's original Mystery religion... but there you go

Still this is music to make English men and woman cry in times of war. Or being many thousands of miles from home... type thing

I tried to find an English rendition but nearest I could find came from CHICAGO Symphony Orchestra... Daniel Barenboim is a v famous conductor.. even I've heard of him

Here's the blurb:

Daniel Barenboim with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, opening the 1997 season at Carnegie Hall in this gorgeously performed dedication to the recently deceased Sir Georg Solti. Solti was the previous music director of the CSO for many years.
