Phillip Sear plays a short divertimento (a 'rondeau militaire') from 1852 depicting a small military drum, by the French composer Alexandre Croisez (1814-86). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have found little information on the French composer Alexandre Croisez (1814-86), except that he was sometime harpist at the Paris Opera - although he is best remembered for his piano music. Interestingly, in one of his Spanish tinged piano works, he was apparently the first to introduce to Paris the famous 'La Paloma' by Yradier. His most famous piano piece was 'L'hirondelle et le prisonnier: caprice de genre: Op.58'. The title of the set from which this piece comes translates to English as 'childish things', in the meaning of (boys') toys.
