Phillip Sear plays a leisurely barcarolle - 'On the Arno' - 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 the famous River Arno, which runs through Florence, and which you can read about here: http://bit.ly/2kAfaiw .
