Camille Saint-Saens

Saint-Saens' groundbreaking piece for solo Violin or Mandolin about the appearance of Death each year at midnight on Halloween summoning the dead with his violin.

An authoritative urtext edition of Saint-Saens' Violin Concerto No.3 Op.61 for Violin with Piano reduction. Edited by Peter Jost.

Sonata no.1 in c minor op. 32-At the beginning of the 1870s Camille?Saint-Saëns showed a particular fondness for the Violoncello. He completed his first Cello Sonata in December 1872 immediately after finishing his first Cello Concerto.The sonata is strongly reminiscent of Beethoven not only due to the key of c minor but also predominantly on account of its gripping dramatic art. The exceptional position of this demanding in parts highly virtuosicsonata was quickly recognised by the public and critics and so the work soon found its way into concert repertoire.?Henle's Urtext edition takes all surviving sources into account for the first time ever. PascalRogé and David Geringas kindly provided the markings for the Piano and Cello parts.

Extrait de 'Le Carnaval des animaux'-Camille Saint-Saens' L'Elephant from Carnival Of The Animals. Arranged here by Lucien Garban for Cello (or Double Bass) and Piano.

Camille Saint-Saens' Elephant is a delightful miniature from The Carnival Of The Animals and is one of the few works that are attractive to learners and accomplished players alike. Its many musical and technicalchallenges have earned it a permanent place in the teaching repertoire yet it offers soloists a welcome opportunity to demonstrate their prowess and espirit even in the low register.The ease with which a greatcomposer accurately and skilfully probes the idiosyncracies of this largest of string instruments for expressive purposes - a combination of features seldom encountered in the double bass repertoire - is truly impressive. All themore astonishing therefore that the Elephant although widely known is relatively rarely heard in the concert hall.This Urtext edition of the score has been edited with critical commentaries as well as fingeringand bowing of the double bass part by Tobias Glockler. The accompaniment is notated in E flat and F and so the double bass can perform using either solo tuning or orchestra tuning.

The French composer Camille Saint-Saëns endowed the music world with a multitude of masterpieces for violoncello including concertos sonatas and miniatures such as The Swan and the Allegro appassionato Op.43.This first publication of the Sonata in D major is based on Bärenreiter?s Camille Saint-Saëns ?uvres instrumentales complètes. Although we know from correspondence that two complete autographs existed only an incomplete autograph source containing the 1st movement and part of the 2nd movement which breaks off have come down to us. In his final work for violoncello Saint-Saëns juxtaposes highly rhythmical episodes with more poetic ones. These contrasts arereinforced by bold shifts of harmonic colouring and a highly inventive thematic development.These movements are destined to become standards for cellists.First ever Urtext edition of this incomplete work based on Camille Saint-Saëns ?uvres instrumentales complètesInformative Introduction (Fr/Eng/Ger)
