More Symphonic Masterpieces Camille Saint-Saens 1835-1921 ( Originally Published 1935 ) Symphony No. 3, in C minor, Opus 78 I. Adagio; Allegro moderato; Poco adagio H. Allegro moderato; Presto; Maestoso; Allegro And if you hunted through a hundred universes you could not find a man or artist so antithetical to Brahms of the Fourth symphony as Camille Saint-Saens. We shall speak here only of his most notable symphony, and not of the four short and Gallic symphonic poems ("Le Rovet d'Omphale," "Phaeton," "La jeunesse d'Hercule," "La danse macabre") which had, at the time of their composition, a special importance in French music. Saint-Saens was, in the first place, a man of culture, of cosmopolitan experience, distinguished manners, travel and acquaintance with the great world. A brilliant musician and composer, a consummate technician and master of form, a true artist, he would nevertheless have wrought differently if he had possessed a greater soul. When Saint-Saens visited this country, in the season of 1906-1907, then a man of seventy-one years, to play with various orchestras and appear in other concerts of his own works, Philip Hale wrote of him in the Boston Symphony program books of that season (and others), in part as follows: "Organist, pianist, caricaturist, dabbler in science, enamored of mathematics and astronomy, amateur comedian, feuilletonist, critic, traveler, archeologist —he has been, and is, a restless man.

Sciences Health Arts College Journals Literature Science History Business ... Z Search Contemporary Musicians: Saint-Sa«ns, Camille Printable Version Download PDF Cite this Page Composer, pianist Apiano prodigy in his youth but an estimable person-age in French music as an adult, Camille Saint-Sa«ns is one of the few great musical names associated with a country better known for its contribution to the visual arts. Saint-Sa«ns was renowned for his breathtaking skill as a pianist—he was compared to Mozart as a child and Beethoven later—but his compositions for the symphony, ballet, and concerto ensemble are a legacy of his formidable intelligence and talent. They are considered quintessentially French pieces: clear, ordered, and intellectually profound. Saint-Sa«ns was born in Paris in 1835 at home at 3 rue de Jardinet in the Latin Quarter. His father was a clerk at the Ministry of the Interior, but died of consumption before Camille was a year old. Their unusual family name came from their hometown, which had been known once in Latin as Sanctus Sidonius. The death of his father was not the only setback Saint-Sa«ns suffered at an early age—he was a sickly child, and tuberculosis threatened him as well. He lived with his mother and her aunt, Charlotte Masson, who began teaching him piano at the age of two. A precocious child, he wrote his first work for the instrument at the age of three.
