I like Elgar and enjoy the "pastoral" sound of RVW and Delius  .
I have been checking out English composers on Amazon a bit lately - I was thinking of getting the Bax symphonies on Chandos and the Arnold symphonies on Naxos and have seen an interesting series of Boult conducting English composers on the Lyrita label: all may be future purchases when funds allow  . |
You should definitely checkout Finzi, Ireland, Bliss, and Howells. These composers, all very underrated by the way, are amazing.
