description
Camille Saint-Saëns, a virtuoso pianist and prolific composer, enriched the repertoire of sonatas for solo instruments and piano with works characterized by elegance, technical mastery, and lyrical beauty.

The Sonata for Violin and Piano No. 1 in D minor, Op. 75 (1885) stands out as a masterpiece. A tour de force of Romantic expression, it traverses a wide emotional spectrum, from fiery passion to serene introspection. Similarly, his Cello Sonatas balance dramatic intensity with moments of tender lyricism, offering a richly textured dialogue between cello and piano

Saint-Saëns’s sonatas reflect his deep understanding of both solo instruments and piano, often demanding exceptional technical proficiency from the performers. Yet, they remain deeply expressive, rooted in the French tradition of clarity and elegance. His Oboe Sonata, Clarinet Sonata, Flute Sonata, Bassoon Sonata and Horn Sonata, written during his final years, demonstrate a more restrained, intimate style, emphasizing tonal beauty and succinctness.

Played by Mauro Tortorelli (violin), Andrea Favalessa (cello) and the soloists of the Accademia di Santa Cecilia Rome.
