Camille Saint-Sa ns 1835-1921: A Thematic Catalogue of his Complete Works defines the achievement of this great French composer. All his musical works are presented: the well-recognized masterpieces, the childhood sketches, the unpublished compositions, and the previously unknown pieces now revealed for the first time. This comprehensive collection fully documents the composer's extraordinary contribution to the musical world. Volume 1 concentrates specifically on his Instrumental output, while the two later volumes will cover Dramatic Works and Choral & Vocal Works respectively.
The story of "the greatest among the many great organists of nineteenth-century France ... the composer of the witty zoology The carnival of the animals, Danse macabre, and the opera Samson et Dalila."--Jacket.
A fun way to present classical music to children. Nearly 150 years ago, the composer Camille Saint-Saens was asked by his pupils to write a musical joke for them. He wrote the "The Carnival of the Animals", a piece people enjoyed so much that is has now become one of Saint-Saens's most famous works. This accessible commentary, in a picture-book format, helps children follow each section of the piece while they listen to the CD. Full-color illustrations, a simple text, and evocative melodies create an ideal introduction for young children to the world of classical music.
A great way to introduce children to classical music. America’s first Children's Poet Laureate has written all-new verses to accompany the composer Camille Saint-Saëns’s The Carnival of the Animals, and the illustrator of the Harry Potter books has turned these rollicking rhymes into a picture-book fun fest. A note to parents and teachers by Judith Bachleitner, head of the music department at the prestigious Rudolf Steiner School in New York City, suggests ways preschoolers can act out the music—tromp like an elephant, hop like a kangaroo, glide like a swan—or, for older children, be creatively inspired by this joyful work.
"The often violent extremes of opinion which he aroused in others created a legacy of prejudices and assumptions which has for three-quarters of a century remained largely unchallenged and has militated against a more sober assessment of his music and its place in musical history."--BOOK JACKET. "Stephen Studd's biography offers just such an assessment. Together with an extensive bibliography, appendices with selections from the composer's essays and poetry, and an up-to-date discography of the ever-growing number of recordings, this biography is much needed and timely."--BOOK JACKET.
THE HAMMOCK: A novel based on the true story of French painter James Tissot portrays ten remarkable years in the life of James Tissot (1836-1902), who rebuilt - and then lost - his reputation in London. THE HAMMOCK is a psychological portrait, exploring the forces that unwound the career of this complex man. Based on contemporary sources, the novel brings Tissot's world alive in a story of war, art, Society glamour, love, scandal, and tragedy.
Inspired by Saint-Saëns' famous zoological fantasy, this magnificent project combines specially commissioned work by eleven acclaimed modern poets with riotous illustrations by Satoshi Kitamura. The accompanying CD features each of the poems representing an animal in the procession, read aloud to their corresponding passage of music. Let the carnival begin! All ages.
