Saint-Saëns, Godard

An evening in the company of Hervé Niquet, accompanied by the leading cellist of his generation, Edgar Moreau.

Who better than the great specialist of the French repertoire to tackle a program featuring composers influenced by Wagner? Hervé Niquet shares the exquisite flavor of some rarely performed scores. Between La nuit et l'amour, Augusta Holmès's sublime symphonic ode, and a tribute to Henri Duparc's Aux étoiles, the evening promises to be radiant. Edgar Moreau, winner of the Young Soloist Prize at the Rostropovich Competition, brilliantly surveys the brilliant pages of Camille Saint-Saëns' Cello Concerto No. 1.
