Par SAINT-SAENS CAMILLE. En ce début de l'année 2002, les Éditions G. Henle incorporent aussi pour la première fois à leur catalogue Urtext, en tant qu'instrument soliste, la contrebasse. C‘est ainsi qu'est publié, à côté du concerto pour contrebasse de Hoffmeister, l'Éléphant, cette plaisante miniature tirée du Carnaval des animaux de Saint-Saëns. Il s'agit là de l'une des rares compositions pour contrebasse qui soit attrayante aussi bien pour l'apprenant que pour le musicien chevronné. Henle publie ce «succès» en version Urtext pour contrebasse accordée comme instrument soliste et pour la version orchestrale, en fa majeur et mi bémol majeur, avec partie de piano correspondante. / Partition brochée / Date parution : 1905-06-06/ Répertoire / Contrebasse et Piano

Fossils and Finale combines two of the better-known movements from the humorous Carnival of the Animals. This fourteen-movement suite by Camille Saint-Saëns featured musical depictions of animals such as The Swan and The Elephant, and was written for a private performance with young students in mind. While the composer didn't feel it was serious enough to be performed during his lifetime, it has since gone on to become a beloved classical-musical favorite. In this arrangement, the quirky Fossils with optional xylophone is written to be more accessible for intermediate students, segueing seamlessly into the circus-like Finale. Both movements feature bright, fun melodies within playable ranges and keys for the developing ensemble and the original piano part integrated into the string parts.
