CAMILLE SAINT-SAËNS (1834-1921): Le Rouet d’Omphale, Op. 31, Phaéton, Op. 39, Danse macabre, Op. 40, La Jeunesse d’Hercule, Op. 50, Sarabande and Rigaudon, Op. 93/1-2.

Description: Saint-Saëns’ symphonic poems, Danse macabre aside, are less-recorded than his other orchestral music and are often used as fillers on symphony or concerto recordings, so it’s useful to have a fine new recording of all of them together. Orchestre National de Lille; Jun Märkl.
