Sarabande et Rigaudon, Op. 93: No. 1 (Sarabande)

• Saint Saens, Camille

Camille Saint-Saëns (1835-1921) composed the ‘concert pair’ of orchestra dances, SARABANDE ET RIGAUDON, Op. 93 in 1892. The first movement, SARABANDE, is written for strings alone, and follows the dance-form that originated in sixteenth-century Spain. The lively second movement, RIGAUDON, is written for full orchestra, and the French folk-dance from the seventeenth century contrasts well with the first movement of the suite. Each movement is available separately from the publishers. Instrumentation for No. 1, SARABANDE: String Orchestra (8-8-5-5-5 in set). Reprint edition.
