This ambitious project consists of a recording of the complete music for violin and orchestra and cello and orchestra by Camille Saint-Saëns. No major composer of the last two centuries, in any land, has matched Saint-Saëns’s devotion to the concertante form. This recording project, presenting his complete works for violin and orchestra and for cello and orchestra, provides a rare (indeed a unique!) opportunity to perceive the gradual development of Saint-Saëns’s style.

Each year, new musicians prepare for their solo career at the the Queen Elizabeth Music Chapel, helped by great performers such as the violinist Augustin Dumay, the cellist Gary Hoffman, and the pianist Maria João Pires. Accompanied by the Liège Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of the Viennese conductor Christian Arming, the young violinists and cellists of the Chapel present not just the most frequently performed concertos of Saint-Saëns, but also a chance to discover such little known works as the First and Second violin concertos and the Second Cello Concerto.
