Saint-Saëns: Cello Concerto No.1 | Emmanuelle Bertrand | Pedro Halffter | Ensemble Orchestral de Paris
The Cello Concerto No. 1 in A Minor, Op. 33 by Camille Saint-Saëns performed by French cellist Emmanuelle Bertrand and the Ensemble Orchestral de Paris under the baton of Pedro Halffter in the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris (2005).
Ce Concerto n°1 en la mineur, au Théâtre du Châtelet, a une clarté presque lumineuse. Emmanuelle Bertrand et l'Ensemble Orchestral de Paris le portent avec une grâce rare. ✨
You hear the close the way I do — all that tenderness, then the hall has no choice. The climax is an apothéose, and Emmanuelle never hurries the bow. 🌸
