Introduced by Richard Baker
In the second of this season's recordings from the Henry Wood Promenade Concerts, The Nash Ensemble is conducted by Lionel Friend
Katia and Marielle Labeque are the soloists in Saint-Saens' The Carnival of the Animals.
This delightful, witty and satirical series of portraits of animals was written for a private party. Saint-Saens would not allow a public performance until after his death. The programme also includes Milhaud's La creation du monde, a work strongly influenced by jazz.
