Paul Wachs : Petit Pinson (Bluette)

The French composer Étienne-Victor-Paul Wachs (1851-1915) deserves more attention than he gets today. He was an organ student of Franck at the Paris Conservatoire, and won the Premier Prix for organ in 1872. He later became organist at the church of Saint-Merry in Paris, and wrote organ pieces. His photo is shown in the titles for this video. He is remembered today (slightly) for a series of very well crafted piano salon pieces. His works capture as well as any the atmosphere of the 'Belle Époque'. This piece - ' Little Chaffinch ' - is a bluette - literally a flying spark - a popular title for light pieces of the period. My thumbnail features a coloured print of a chaffinch from the late 17th century attributed to Johannes Teyler (1648-1709) - from INHA ( https://tinyurl.com/y9teflv6 ). ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------- Played by Phillip Sear http://www.psear.co.uk (Email: piano4@psear.33mail.com WhatsApp: http://wa.me/441444483794 ) TikTok:   / pianogems
