#4 from 'Silhouettes: 1st selection' ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Phillip Sear plays a short fun piece from 1921 by the British composer Montague Ewing (1890-1957). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Montague Ewing (1890-1957)—sometimes also known as Sherman Myers—was a British composer of light music, particularly famous for his 1911 one-step 'The Policeman's Holiday'. He wrote many pieces with descriptive titles. Ewing actually published six 'selections' of 'Silhouettes', and at the time of uploading this video I just had one of them. Of the pieces in the set, four were written in 1916 and two in 1921. This piece has a slight feel of Percy Grainger in its energetic writing.
