Belford by William Channing Whitney, 1906

Elinor Watson Bell was one of the Twin Cities’ principal arts patrons, a fine pianist herself and a true music lover. In 1996 the American Composers Forum commissioned The Belford Waltz as a one-page piano solo. Elinor liked it so much that she hung it on the wall in her Wayzata home, which was named Belford.

The first four notes of the waltz are E-B-E-LL, where L stands for La, the note A.

Belford has been orchestrated, as the opening number in Suite Populaire,
