Phillip Sear plays an effervescent encore-type piece from 1946 by the British composer Alec Rowley.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alec Rowley (1892-1958) - who died while playing tennis - is best known today for his educational pieces and songs. His piano music is stylistically similar to that of York Bowen, but some also shows expressionist tendencies and is harmonically more sophisticated than Bowen's work.  This late piece certainly leans towards Bowen in its piano writing, but also maybe echoes Debussy's 'Jardins sous la pluie'
