Percy Grainger plays Cyril Scott, Lotus Land Op. 47 No. 1., in a 1929 Duo-Art reproducing piano roll recording. It is played on a ca. 1929 Chickering Duo-Art that I recently restored. Grainger was a close friend of Scott, and they even recorded some two-piano music together, so this is a version that Scott heard and approved of.
CYRIL SCOTT: Lotus Land, recorded for the Duo-Art Pianola Piano by Percy Grainger at Aeolian Hall in New York City, published as roll no. 7127 in March 1928, and played back in May 2009 on a Hamburg Steinway Duo-Art grand, no. 241071, in London, England.
Cyril Meir Scott (1879-1970) was a prolific British composer of the early 20th century, sometimes known as "The English Debussy." Today he is best known for his short piano work "Lotus Land" Op. 47 No.1 in E flat minor from 1905, which he performs here on Ampico reproducing piano roll #66321H, issued in the US in July 1926.
