Fritz Kreisler plays Cyril Scott's 'Lotus Land' op. 47 no. 1

The official Cyril Scott website states: "A composer, author, poet and occultist, Cyril Scott was an extraordinarily creative man. Ahead of his time both in his music and in his thought, Cyril Scott was one of the more remarkable men of his generation. Described by Eugene Goossens as "the father of modern British music" Cyril Scott was admired by composers as diverse as Claude Debussy, Richard Strauss, Igor Stravinsky and his lifelong friend Percy Grainger.". As for the Austrian violinist and composer Kreisler, since he was one of the greatest violinists in history, there is hardly any need to present him. On this 1924 record, he plays Scott's exquisitely meditative piano work in an arrangement for violin and piano. Mr. Kreisler was accompanied by Carl Lamson.
