Phillip Sear plays a subtle waltz-caprice from 1897 by the French organist and composer André Coedès-Mongin (1871–54). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have found little information on André Coedès-Mongin, except that he was a Parisian organist: at St. Leu at the turn of the last century, and then from 1901 right through to 1952 he held various organist and choirmaster positions at l'église de la Sainte-Trinité, where for the last 20 years he was a colleague of Messiaen. This piece was dedicated to Breton composer Léon Moreau (1870–1946), who is remembered for his work as a pioneer of scores for silent movies. The thumbnail shows an 1887 photo of a waltzing couple.
