Craggs, Stewart R. Edward Elgar: A Source Book. Aldershot, England: Scolar Press, 1995.
-
Starting point for research on Elgar, his life and his music.
-
Although no inclusion criteron is specifically stated, one assumes the work includes the vast majority of Elgar's works. The bibliography itself presents literature relating to Elgar and his music in the form of articles, books, theses, record reviews and sleeve notes, and programme notes. Recordings included are only those of Elgar conducting his own music.
-
The work is divided into six major sections: Alphabetical list of main compositions, Chronology, Catalogue raisonné, Recordings, Collections, and Select Bibliography. The Catalogue raisonné first groups compositions by the year they were composed, then lists compositions alphabetically by title. Entries here specify where possible the work's state of completion, instrumentation, publication information, performers and date for premiere, and dedicatee. The Recordings section arranges entries chronologically by date of recording under each title. Entries here include record label number and date of recording. The Collections section lists various collections of Elgar's papers. Entries are organized alphabetically by location of collection, and specify notable holdings for that particular collection. The Select Bibliography is organized alphabetically by subject or composition, under which each entry is listed alphabetically by author. Each entry contains a complete bibliographic citation. The work concludes with a general index.
