Phillip Sear plays the first from a set of 12 'Federzeichnungen' (Pencil sketches) from 1899  by the Danish pianist and composer Ludvig Schytte.  (Sorry about the spelling mistake in the video title frame).

If you would like to know more about Ludvig Schytte (1848-1909) the Danish pianist and composer of this piece,  have a look at his own brief account of his life written in 1901 in the March edition of the Etude magazine, which can be downloaded from here: https://goo.gl/zy5trR  .   For me the 'Pencil sketches', taken as a whole, are  not Schyttes most inspired works - but there are some attractive movements, including this lovely invocation of a Sunday morning - in which, presumably, the distant sounds of bells were not interrupted by passing traffic or aircraft!  My thumbnail shows a detail from 'Sunday Morning' by the American artist Asher Brown Durand (1796-1886).
