#1 from 2 Pièces, Op.7
------------------------------------------------------
Phillip Sear plays a song without words by the French composer René de Boisdeffre (1838–1906).
---------------------------------------------------------------------
de Boisdeffre came from a military family, and was mainly homeschooled in music.  He was encouraged in his compositional work by his friend Saint-Saëns—the dedicatee of the set from which the piece in this video comes.  He was later a good friend of Massenet.  His compositions were mainly chamber and vocal music, with one or two orchestral pieces.   You can read more about him in a contemporary account of his life here: http://bit.ly/2bHVMtX .
