This contemplative piece for two mandolins is described as a "prayer" in the score, which suits the mood. Played as a duet on two vintage Italian bowlback mandolins.
1890s Umberto Ceccherini mandolin
1915 Luigi Embergher mandolin
Desormes was a French romantic orchestra leader and composer -- Andy Boden has previously posted his piece "Serenade des mandolines" here. Michael Reichenbach has recorded the same piece here.
