To mark the 100th anniversary of the death of Camille Saint-Saens, the Basel Symphony Orchestra under its conductor Ivor Bolton had set itself the goal of giving the public an insight into the composer’s well-known as well as lesser-known symphonic works.

The present recording is dedicated to the lesser known, but nevertheless no less important symphonic poems.

Been recorded for the first time, including the popular “Bacchanale” from Samson et Dalila, according to Hugh Macdonalds’ new critical edition published by Barenreiter.
