Scott. Lotus Land for Violin And Piano. Sheet Music. Piano, Violin. PF. VLN. Cyril Scott.

Original

Lotus Land was undoubtedly the work for which Scott is best known. Written in 1905, Lotus Land achieved great popularity and was arranged for a vast array of instruments. It is a dreamy, impressionistic piece and extremely innovative for its era. Cyril Scott was a British composer active from the very late 19th century and through the 20th whose work could be termed late Romantic with elements of impressionism with free use of exotic harmonies. Scott was an extremely prolific composer who left more than four hundred works ranging from symphonies, operas and concertos to many works for smaller ensembles, solo instruments and short songs. Virtuoso Violinist Fritz Kreisler was the premier Violinist of his day and, some believe, the greatest Violinist of all time. In addition to his original compositions, Kreisler often transcribed or arranged the work of other composers.
