Camille Saint-Saëns' Danse Macabre Op.40 transcribed by the composer for Violin and Piano and re-typeset to the highest modern standards.

en treize morceaux pour piano-Thirteen Pieces for Piano by Camille Saint-Saens including some of his most popular and renowned works including Danse Macabre and the Swan from Carnival of The Animals

Two of Saint-Saens most popular works appear together in this affordable volume. First composed in a song form Danse Macabre was later rewritten as a symphonic poem. It is important to remember that risque music was considered more daring and controversial than today and audiences at its 1875 debut were resistant to its unconventional charms but it eventually became a crowd pleaser. Havanaise is among the most challenging of violin and orchestra pieces but a standard showpiece in the repertoire of every serious violinist. Based on the Cuban dance Habanera the 1887 work features a languid mood highlighted by bursts of virtuoso activity. This volumecontains the full score for violin and orchestra of both these magnificent pieces.

This is a wonderful collection of popular and some less well-known pieces. It contains three movements from The Carnival of the Animals the slow movement and the famous Maestoso section from the 'Organ' Symphony (No. 3) the meltingly beautiful aria 'Softly awakes my heart' from the opera Samson and Delilah the opening section of the Danse Macabre and several other pieces illustrating the range of Saint-Saëns' compositional style. All the pieces are immensely playable and have been chosen to suit the needs of both church and concert organists.

Par . Beginning pianists of all ages will cherish this excellent compilation of classics. Each piece was carefully selected and simplified to help students develop their skills. Many of the greatest composers ? J. S.

Composers and works not usually featured in beginner\'s books include pieces by Borodin, Gluck, Rameau, and Tallis. Well-known classics include Bach\'s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3, Debussy\'s Claire de Lune, Moussorgsky\'s Pictures at an Exhibition, Satie\'s Gymnopedie No. 1, Schumann\'s Child Falling Asleep, and \'Spring\' from Vivaldi\'s Four Seasons. Several orchestral pieces have been newly adapted for the piano, including \'Dance of the Swan\' from Swan Lake, \'Elephant\' from Carnival of the Animals, \'Largo\' from Xerxes, and \'Waltz of the Flowers\' from The Nutcracker. / Date parution : 2022-11-12/ Recueil / Piano
