Phillip Sear plays a very tea-shop evocation of an 'ignis fatuus'—the fourth and last piece from a 1926 suite, 'The Enchanted Valley', by Adrien Lamarte
----------------------------------------------
'Adrien Lamarte' is almost certainly a pseudonym for some unidentified composer.  Just two works seem to have been published under this name: this suite, and another called 'The River Path' from 1924.  This piece provides an incredible contrast with Liszt's 'Feux follets', which is an evocation of the same subject—the mysterious ghost lights seen on marshes (see http://bit.ly/1RD3Z10 ).
