Immerse yourself in the captivating world of Camille Saint-Saëns with this exquisite collection of his violin concertos and other orchestral works. Released in 1977 under the Warner Classics label, this album spans a generous 2 hours and 29 minutes, offering a comprehensive journey through the composer's virtuoso compositions for the violin.
The album showcases Saint-Saëns' three violin concertos, each a masterclass in orchestration and melodic brilliance.

The Second Violin Concerto in C Major, Op. 58, presents a more lyrical and expansive work, while the Third Violin Concerto in B Minor, Op. 61, is a profound and dramatic exploration of the violin's expressive range.
Beyond the concertos, the album includes a variety of Saint-Saëns' other works for violin and orchestra, such as the playful "Havanaise," the virtuosic "Introduction and Rondo capriccioso," and the evocative "Caprice andalous." The album also features arrangements of Saint-Saëns' "6 Études, Op. 52" and his romantic "Romance pour violon et orchestre."
