Disillusion

An angry, despaired, disillusioned, nostalgic concerto, composed after the first World War by Edward Elgar. The performer, Jacqueline Duprè, goes beyond a human essence when she plays. In the video she was 21; and it is really painful to think that a few years later she got multiple sclerosis, which impeded her the conscious use of her body, thus music, e.g. what was dearest to her. The thought of her and her performances, however, still change lives nowadays.
