A revealing look at French composer and virtuoso Camille SaintSansCamille SaintSansperhaps the foremost French musical figure of the late nineteenth century and a composer who wrote in nearly every musical genre, from opera and the symphony to film musicis now being rediscovered after a century of modernism overshadowed his earlier importance. In a wideranging and trenchant series of essays, articles, and documents, Camille SaintSans and His World deconstructs the multiple realities behind the man and his music. Topics range from intimate glimpses of the private and playful SaintSans, to the composer's interest in astronomy and republican politics, his performances of Mozart and Rameau over eight decades, and his extensive travels around the world. This collection also analyzes the role he played in various musical societies and his complicated relationship with such composers as Liszt, Massenet, Wagner, and Ravel. Featuring the best contemporary scholarship on this crucial, formative period in French music, Camille SaintSans and His World restores the composer to his vital role as innovator and curator of Western music.The contributors are Byron Adams, Leon Botstein, JeanChristophe Branger, Michel Duchesneau, Katharine Ellis, Annegret Fauser, Yves Grard, Dana Gooley, Carolyn Guzski, Carol Hess, D. Kern Holoman, Lo Houziaux, Florence Launay, Stphane Leteur, Martin Marks, Mitchell Morris, Jann Pasler, William Peterson, Michael Puri, Sabina Teller Ratner, Laure Schnapper, MarieGabrielle Soret, Michael Stegemann, and Michael Strasser.
