The Malmö Symphony Orchestra, led by acknowledged French music expert Marc Soustrot, presents this first volume of a three album series devoted to the five symphonies and other orchestral works by Saint-Saëns. Complete recordings of Saint-Saëns’s symphonies are rare and this cycle is the first series released since the 1970s. In addition to the two symphonies here, the programme is embellished with the symphonic poem Phaéton which brings to life the Greek mythological drama with stampeding horses and thunderbolts.
