About
Camille Saint-Saëns, virtuoso pianist, organist and conductor, was also a great admirer of Liszt. His Symphony no.3, which adds both his chosen keyboard instruments to the orchestra, and his Piano Concerto no.4 utilise the codes of the old master, the better to transcend them.
As partner of Les Siècles since 2017, harmonia mundi felt it was a must to reissue these fiery readings of two masterpieces in the great French Romantic tradition, for which François-Xavier Roth invited two eminent soloists.

a truly one-off spectacle in which the organ’s presence in that famous finale is felt as in virtually no other recording. Also included is an equally compelling account of the Fourth Piano Concerto, recorded the previous year at the OpéraComique, with Jean-François Heisser playing a wonderful 1874 Érard piano.
