Gatty Sellars (1875-1947) was described during his career as “the
world’s greatest descriptive organist.” He played on radio and
in films, “the only organist-composer to be filmed playing his own compositions,” as
written in 1942.
Watch
him playing “At the Temple Gates” from 1931. ”Fancies” was dedicated to Wesley Raymond
Burroughs (1878–1965), graduate of the Guilmant Organ School in 1903
where he studied with William C Carl. Burroughs was organist at the Lyndhurst (World), Piccadilly, Madison and Regent Theatres
in Rochester, New York, and Delaware Avenue Baptist Church in Buffalo. Easy.
