The Black Knight, Der Schwarze Ritter

- Cantata for Chorus and Orchestra (1893)

Bag om The Black Knight, Der Schwarze Ritter

The Black Knight, also known as Der Schwarze Ritter, is a cantata composed by Edward Elgar in 1893. The piece is written for chorus and orchestra and is based on a medieval legend about a knight who is cursed to wander the earth until he finds a maiden who will love him for himself, rather than his wealth and status. The cantata is divided into six movements, each of which tells a different part of the story. The music is characterized by Elgar's signature lush harmonies and soaring melodies, and the choral writing is particularly rich and expressive. The piece is considered one of Elgar's early masterpieces and is still performed today by choirs and orchestras around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
