Sir Hubert Parry - Symphony No. 3 "The English" (1889)

Sir Charles Hubert Hastings Parry, 1st Baronet (27 February 1848 – 7 October 1918) was an English composer, teacher and historian of music. He was also an enthusiastic cruising sailor and owned successively the yawl The Latois and the ketch The Wanderer. In 1908 he was elected as a member of the Royal Yacht Squadron, the only composer so honored.

Allegro molto scherzoso (17:55) IV. Moderato (23:23) London Philharmonic conducted by Matthias Bamert Description by Bonnie Fleming [-] Parry's reputation as a composer was well established by the Late 1880s, ensuring a constant demand for new works. The Third and Fourth Symphonies simultaneously occupied Parry throughout 1888 and early 1889. Hans Richter championed the first two symphonies, including them in concerts of the Philharmonic Society. Symphony No. 3 was introduced in the same fashion on May 23, 1889 with the composer conducting. The immediate, lasting acclaim resulting from this performance made this Symphony the most frequently performed symphony by any English composer for the next twenty years. Although first performed in 1889 and later revised in 1895, the work remained unpublished until 1907. This is Hubert Parry's large-scale orchestral masterpiece which has epoch-making significance in the history of English orchestral music. Parry was an avid patron of the concert life available in London and it was in the programming of these concerts that he found his inspiration. His aim for "The English" was to create a viable English equivalent to the Mendelssohn "Italian" Symphony and Schumann's "Rheinish" Symphony. The result is a work that combines the influences of these works with qualities evocative of the characteristics of the English as a people. The first movement inspired the open-air qualities inherent in later English orchestration, exhibiting the pastoral side of the English character. The second movement is the heart of the Symphony, portraying a melancholy introspection through a poignant, yearning melody scored for divided strings in rich, Brahmsian harmony and orchestration. This movement is undeniably the direct predecessor of Fantasia on a Theme of Thomas Tallis and the "Nimrod" variation. Both Ralph Vaughn Williams and Edward Elgar later attested to the lasting influence this Symphony wielded over their own musical imagination. "The English" gave the harmonic and formal language and the impetus for the development of the subsequent English orchestral tradition.
