Phillip Sear plays the first piece - 'Introduction' -  from Heinrich Hofmann's set of six piano pieces 'Italienische Liebesnovelle' (An Italian Love-Story).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hofmann (1842-1902) was a German composer, born in Berlin, and well-known in his lifetime for orchestral works and operas. He is mainly remembered today for shorter piano works, some of which are still used for educational purposes. This set of pieces was originally written in 1874 for piano duet, but was published in a solo version in 1880.  I am not sure if the title relates to a specific book or poem.
