An absolutely charming performance!

Sounds pretty modern. I share Victor's comments

Hi @sonomabob,

Thanks for commenting.

Shand was an artist and likely ahead of his time.

Best,

Alex.

A lovely performance of a lovely composition! Humbling, how much music there is out there, how little of it most of us really know... Had I known this piece before, I would have gladly admitted that the 2nd movement of my Mimose had been influenced by it. Perhaps by some sort of mysterious telepathy across the ages...

Hi Victor,

Thanks for the reply!

I'll check your Mimose tonight and see what connection we have there ;-).

Many greetings, Alex.

Just that easy-going, bon vivant, "Edwardian flavor", I suppose...

[OrchestradiMandolini]

Hi @victorkioulaphides, Yes, that's it most certainly!
