Mina
Mina, commemorating his pet dog, was Elgar's last piece of light music. It was originally written in 1932 for piano, and Elgar made this orchestral version in 1934. Owing to ill-health Elgar was unable to finalise the orchestration, which was completed by friends so that he could hear a recording of the piece before his death. It is a short, whimsical piece portraying the dog's capricious and affectionate nature.
