Saint Saens Complete Shorter Wks Cello

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. This volume includes some of Saint Saens Best loved pieces such as 'Allegro Appasionato' and 'Le Cygne' alongside his previously unpublished 'Gavotte' (Posth.) Primary sources have been consulted in preparation of the edition, which includes performance notes by Steven Isserlis and an informative introduction.
