Elgar's Earnings investigates whether Elgar's complaints about a lack of money can be justified by the facts. This comparative analysis enriches our understanding of the economic and social forces at work in nineteenth and early twentieth century Britain and shows how Elgar, despite his insecure financial position, helped to establish the profession of the English composer, to the lasting benefit of future generations.
