Saint-Saëns: Complete Symphonies

Music director Cristian Macelaru, performs the composer's five symphonies: nos. 1, 2 and 3 and two unnumbered works, the early 'Symphony in A Major' and the 'Symphony in F Major, 'Urbs Roma''. The works span some 35 years of the composer's dazzling career - from around 1850, when he was 15, to 1886, the year that the 'Symphony No. 3' was premiered. By far the best known of the five, 'No. 3' famously complements the orchestra with an organ, played on this new recording by Olivier Latry.
