A seminal figure in the history of French Romantic music, Camille Saint-Saiens (1835-1921) was also one of the greatest keyboard prodigies of the past 200 years. Not only was Camille Saint-Saiens a piano virtuoso, eulogized by Liszt amongst many others, but he was one of the most exciting and imaginative of composers for the instrument. He enjoyed taking baroque and classical forms and translating them into his own brand of romantic language, qualities that Geoffrey Burleson explores so adroitly in this second volume of the complete piano music. Geoffrey Burleson has performed to wide acclaim throughout Europe and North America, and is equally active as a recitalist, concerto soloist, chamber musician and jazz performer.
