Phillip Sear plays a period-piece by the British composer Hubert Bath, famous for his 'Cornish Rhapsody' from a film score.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
British composer Hubert Bath (1883-1945) studied composition with Frederick Corder at the Royal Academy of Music in London. Although he wrote light orchestral suites and stage music, he is remembered today for his 1930s film scores, and in particular, for one of his last works, the 'Cornish Rhapsody' for piano and orchestra, which appeared in the 1944 film 'Love Story'. You can read much more about Bath's life and works here: http://bit.ly/WmOTDg .  This piece was published in 1922 and is very much the sort of piece you might have heard in a tea-room.
