Damis Paul was a Romantic-era Canadian organist, pianist, violinist, choirmaster and composer. His career included being an organist at the Montreal Cathedral, at Quebec City’s St-Roch Church, and later in the USA - in New York and South Bend.
Paul's repertoire as a performer included many transcriptions and paraphrases from operas. One of his compositions is Scintillation, written in the style of a salon etude, performed here by Elaine Keillor. https://youtu.be/950ljOd_ARE
