Extra Information An orchestral suite from 1902-03 that derives from an opera (Myrdhin) Ladmirault composed from 1902-21. A partial manuscript of the suite can be found at BNF (catalogue entry) but is not yet digitized. It's not clear whether the opera or the orchestral score of the suite has been published, but the composer arranged all movements of the suite for either 2 pianos 4 hands (Nos.1,3,5) or piano 4 hands (Nos.2,4), first published in 1908.
