Saint-Saens' life-long admiration of the cello led to some of his finest
compositions. This edition, by celebrated cellist Steven Isserlis and
Saint-Saens scholar Sabina Teller Ratner, brings together a collection
as varied as it is appealing for Solo Cello with Piano Accompaniment.
This volume includes some of Saint-Saens' best-loved pieces such as
Allegro Appasionato and Le Cygne alongside his previously unpublished
Gavotte.
Primary sources have been consulted in preparation of the edition, which
includes performance notes by Steven Isserlis and an informative
introduction.
The solo cello part is also included on a separate insert.
