Camille Saint-Saëns
Allegro appassionato op. 43 for Violoncello and Piano
> We do not know why he wrote the work, but it is likely that after having written two weighty works for cello, Saint-Saëns wanted to write something “easier” that was also suitable as an encore. David Geringas kindly provided the fingering and bowing for the brilliant cello part.
