About This Song
About "Elgar: 2 Chansons, Op. 15: No. 2, Chanson de matin (Orchestral Version)" by Andrew Davis
Elgar's Chanson de matin, in Davis's orchestral glow, is dawn rendered as gentle strings and woodwind birdsong. The morning is serene but faintly wistful, as if the day already mourns its own passing. A soft-focus idyll where calm and quiet melancholy hold hands.
