GUEST,Noel Tune Req: Wilson Keppel & Betty Sand dance (78* d) RE: Tune Req: Wilson Keppel & Betty Sand dance 15 May 04


For Pete's sake why is everyone so lacking in musical knowledge
nowadays - NO! it b****y-well ISN'T Ketelby's Putrid Persian Market, nor even his Morbid Monastery Garden. The W.K. & B. sand-dance music is the first movement of a four-movement concert piece by a little-known nineteenth-century French composer called Alexandre Clement
Leon Joseph Luigini, born in Lyons in March 1850, died in Paris, July
1906. The piece is called "Ballet Egyptien" and was very popular with concert audiences right up to the late 1940s. I have three recordings of it, two them on 78s (four 12" sides) and one on a 45rpm EP dating from the early 1960s. You could have a look on eBay, where a recording of it is bound to come up for auction eventually. Any further help, e-mail me: onionleaf@btinternet.com.
