Description
The a-minor Concerto, is a true gem in the repertoire of great cello music. David Geringas provided the fingerings for this Urtext edition for which editor Peter Jost supplied a detailed preface. Johannes Umbreit has revised the composer’s highly playable piano reduction to suit the needs of today’s performers.
Saint-Saëns was one of the most multifaceted musicians of the second half of the nineteenth century in France. Regarded as a Classicist, he also wrote pieces with an Impressionist character to their sound, and one composition in quarter-tones. As a critic and essayist he was involved in the first complete editions of Rameau’s and Gluck’s works.
