Phillip Sear plays a well-written miniature by the American composer Albert Gehring (1870-1926). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #1 from Suite poétique (1925) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The American composer Albert Gehring (1870-1926) was born in Cleveland, Ohio. He was a Harvard - educated polymath, and made a career as both philosopher and musician. I am not sure who he trained with, but the music in the suite from which this piece comes is all very carefully and economically written. One would like to see Gehring's 1918 marionette play 'The Soul of Chopin'. Otherwise, as a composer, he is best known for songs. The title of this piece recalls the title of a 1919 set of pieces by York Bowen - 'Mood Phases'.
