Elgar's Legacy: A Centennial History of the Malvern Concert Club

By Michael Messenger

Many towns and cities have a music society, formed to promote an annual programme of chamber concerts, but few if any can have as long and illustrious history as the Malvern Concert Club with its unbroken 100 years of active concert promotion. It is unique too in having been founded by Sir Edward Elgar with the active participation of his close friend Troyte Griffith who, together with Elgar's daughter Carice, provided the club with a strong and benevolent leadership from its creation until the latter's death in 1970.
