Phillip Sear plays an 'esquisse musicale' (musical sketch) from 1868 by the French composer Ferdinand de Croze (1828-1902). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The French composer, pianist, and teacher Ferdinand de Croze Magnan (1828-1902) - was born in Marseille. He had an early career as a touring virtuoso, travelling as far as Russia. He also had an appointment as court pianist to the Duke of Parma. However, from the 1850s on, he was based in Lyon, where he taught and concertized. His piano repertoire extended from Bach and Handel to Chopin and Thalberg, and he also produced transcriptions of orchestral works for his own performance. His prize piano student was apparently his daughter Solange. This piece is dedicated to his first wife, Solange's mother, Jeanne de Croze Magnan.
