Saint-Saëns, Camille The Carnival of the Animals for two Flutes Camille Saint-Saëns The Carnival of the Animals is one of his most popular works altogether. Yet during his lifetime he refused to publish this orchestral piece for fear it would damage his reputation as a serious-minded musician. Now Jennifer Seubel and Sally Beck, the flautists of Duo Noble , have arranged this famous work for two flutes. The transformation of the major instruments, timbres and melodies of the orchestral version into solely two flute parts posed a special challenge. The results exploit the full tonal spectrum of the flute. The arrangement offers several alternatives to expand the range of sound: for example, a piccolo can be substituted for either flute part in No. 2 Poules et coqs and for the first flute in No. 7 Aquarium. - The complete Carnival of the Animals for two flutes - 14 challenging and effective pieces

... quite unexpectedly, kangaroos with starched white caps start hopping about between the rows of seats, offering refreshments. The Great Zoological Fantasy was composed in February 1886 for a carnival concert in Paris. After the first concerts, Saint-Saens prohibited all further performances and declined to have the work published during his lifetime. He was justifiably fearful that this occasional work could eclipse his more ambitious pieces. The present Urtext edition by Peter Jost is based chiefly on the autograph, which diverges in certain essential points from the standard first edition available up to now. Loriot's well-known text is printed in the Appendix to the score.

La collection ANACROUSE offre aux pianistes novices et confirmés un large choix d’œuvres classiques, allant de la Renaissance à l’époque moderne.Proposer tout à la fois des « incontournables » du répertoire classique et des pièces de compositeurs parfois oubliés, toutes d’une valeur pédagogique indéniable, tels sont les objectifs que nous nous sommes fixés. Chaque pièce, vendue à l’unité, a fait l’objet d’un travail éditorial attentif, tant sur le plan de l’établissement du texte musical que de sa gravure, afin de garantir aux musiciens les conditions indispensables aux plaisirs tirés du commerce fréquent de ces œuvres.Les partitions sont proposées sous la forme d’ouvrages traditionnels (feuillets papier), et disponibles également par téléchargement.Le Cygne de Saint-Saëns est un célèbre duo pour piano et violoncelle. Il fait partie d'une suite musicale pour orchestre et piano intitulée Carnaval des Animaux, grande fantaisie zoologique. Cette oeuvre est composée de quatorze mouvements écrits lors d'un voyage en Autriche en février 1886. Saint-Saëns, de son vivant, ne souhaite pas que l'oeuvre soit portée à la connaissance du public, à l'exception du Cygne. Cette pièce est illustrée par la ballerine Anna Pavlowa. Son interprétation du cygne popularise la pièce sous le nom de « la mort du cygne ». Saint-Saëns dépeint dans le Carnaval des animaux des portraits d'animaux, l'éléphant, le coucou, les kangourous et les pianistes eux-mêmes font parties de ce défilé zoologique. Ce sont des parodies musicales où l'auteur raille les compositeurs et les interprètes. Il les décrit avec un humour mordant, parfois justifié.Selon une révélation du compositeur, le Cygne est une « noble bêtise ». Cette pièce arrangée pour un seul piano présente une mélodie chantante, langoureuse et pathétique basée sur une vaporeuse harmonie. Arabesques d'une mouvante volupté traduisent les flots tranquilles où nage gracieusement un cygne qui s'éveille jusqu'à son assoupissement.

For flute (piccolo), clarinet (B flat/C), glass harmonica, xylophone, piano I, piano II, violin I, violin II, viola, violoncello, double bass Written in March 1886 as a humorous occasional work for the traditional carnival concert organized by his cellist friend Charles-Joseph Lebouc, the Carnival of the Animals was so successful that Saint-Saëns banned performances and publication soon afterwards. He was worried that this “grand zoological fantasy†– consisting of 14 short individual pieces for eleven instruments – might overshadow his serious works. Yet only five months after the composer's death, it appeared in print after all, beginning its worldwide victory march – in its original setting as well as in numerous arrangements. Thus, the Carnival did in fact arguably become the most popular work by this French composer and, owing to its musical originality, it is also a favourite in music lessons or for school orchestra performances. With this combination of a study edition and an edition in parts (for which additional parts for larger numbers of strings may be ordered), G. Henle Publishers now presents the perfect resource for such occasions.
