			'''Edward Elgar''' (1857-1934) was an English (non-microtonal) composer. His name might not be one that immediately springs to mind at the mention of microtonal music, but he merits a place here for a remark he made in a 1914 presidential speech to the Union of Graduates in Music. Displaying the complex blend of conservatism and progressivism which was such a feature of his musical character, he rails against the 'monkey tricks' of recent compositional trends, then adds:

	'The more subtle refinement is not yet with us and can only come by the use of a scale more minutely divided than our own; this would educate the ear to something finer than we have yet heard'.		"The more subtle refinement is not yet with us and can only come by the use of a scale more minutely divided than our own; this would educate the ear to something finer than we have yet heard."
