Phillip Sear plays a waltz by the British composer Frederic Mullen (aka Gustave Lind)

#2  from 'Winter' (1919)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This suite is actually by the gifted British composer (Alfred) Frederic Mullen (1868-1936). Appraisal of his work is obscured by his use of pseudonyms - for example: Jean Morel , Gustave Lind - as in this work - and Pierre Lescaut.  The works Mullen wrote under the Lind 'brand' tend to be headed by short verse quotations.  This one is headed by a quotation from Milton's masque 'Arcades':
""Such sweet compulsion does in Music lie" - although neither this or the gracious music seem to me to have much relevance to the title of the piece!  My thumbnail shows a colorized version of Théodore Gericault's 'Old Horse at an Inn Door'.
