Camille Saint-Saens: Piano Concertos No. 2 in G minor, Op. 22 & No. 4 in C minor, Op. 44

Capturing Idil Biret's first concerto recording at age 47, this historic 1988 session embodies her triumphant entry into orchestral repertoire after decades of solo work. The album highlights her profound connection to Saint-Saens - showcasing the Concerto No. 2 in G minor's dramatic cadenzas and the innovative structure of the Concerto No. 4 in C minor. Recorded at London's St. Barnabas Church with legendary sound engineers Mark Brown and Tony Faulkner, the project was made possible by support from the Turkish Ministry of Culture. This release marked the beginning of Biret's legendary Naxos partnership, ultimately distributing the recording worldwide to critical acclaim.
