"Alexander Borodin (1883 - 1887) was a Russian composer who made his living as a chemist. He was a member of the group of composers called ""The Five"" (or ""The Mighty Handful"") who were dedicated to producing a specifically Russian kind of art music. He is best known for his symphonies, his two string quartets, and his opera ""Prince Igor"". The opera contains ""The Polovtsian Dances"" which is often performed as a stand-alone concert work."

Elgar was fond of the march "form", his first work to catch the public ear was the Imperial March written in 1897. His Pomp & Circumstanc marches appeared over a period of about thirty years. Nos 1 & 2 in 1901, No3 in 1905, No4 in 1907 and No5 in 1930. Nos 1 & 4 are the best known because of their singable trio tunes, but the others contain some vintage Elgar.

After the success of the first March, Elgar continued the series with four more excellent compositions that are all arguably more interesting than the first. Number 5 is a thoroughly invigorating piece of ceremonial music, completely undeserving of being in the shade of its famous antecedent.

Elgar’s Pomp & Circumstance March No.4 was completed on the 7th June 1907, five days after the composer’s 50th birthday. The first performance took place a few weeks later on the 24th August at the Queen’s Hall, with Henry Wood conducting. Similar in structure and style to Pomp & Circumstance March No.1, it has a lively, rhythmic march section and a very broad, lyrical ‘big tune' melody in the Trio. However, in this march Elgar superimposes one on top of the other in a final, extedned coda. Several attempts have been made to fit words to the main tune, the first of which were by the composer's wife, Alice, for her song The King's Way. The musidc was later set to Alfred Noye's Song of Victory before a later attempt to make a patriotic Song of Liberty for World War II by author A P Herbert.
