Phillip Sear plays a piece - Evening at San Miniato' from a 1924 suite by the French composer Marc Delmas (1885-1931). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The French composer and writer on music Marc Delmas (1885-1931) studied at the Paris Conservatoire. In 1913, he and Marcel Dupré were tied for first prize on the first ballot of the Prix de Rome, and Saint-Saëns opted for Dupré as a 'tie-break'. Delmas wrote in many forms: opera, choral and chamber music, in particular. He used a rather conservative idiom, which is maybe why his music is little heard today. The title of this piece refers to San Miniato al Monte, a basilica in Florence, which you can read about here: http://bit.ly/2l9wkAz . The accompaniment seems to evoke the sounds of gentle bell ringing.
