Boldly penned AMQS on an off-white 10 x 5.5 musically-lined sheet, beautifully signed at the conclusion, "Edward Elgar, March 17th 1927." The composer pens two bars from his 1900 work "The Dream of Gerontius," writing the title at the top. In very good to fine condition, with light toning and soiling, a crease to the lower right corner and repaired short edge tear, and old mounting residue on the back. Based on the poem by John Henry Newman, "The Dream of Gerontius" is widely regarded as one of Elgar's finest works.
