Orchestration
Strings (Violin 1, Violin 2, Viola, Cello, Bass)

First published in 1892, the Serenade for Strings in E minor is thought to be a reworked version of three pieces that Elgar had written around 1888 that had originally been rejected by a music publisher as being "unsaleable".

Now perhaps his best-known work for string orchestra, the Serenade is in three movements: Allegro piacevole, Larghetto & Allegretto.
