Saint Saens is one of the most underrated classical music composer.
Agreed, I honestly hadn't even heard of him until I heard Lara Melda's rendition of his second piano concerto. Needless to say, listening to a lot more of his work recently.
Actually, among musician, he is pretty known. especially in France
No doubt. But among non-musicians everyone know mozart, bach and tchaikovsky but even liszr and rachmaninoff might be unknown names so in that category, saint-saens is far too unknown compared to the quality of his compositions. :)
Yup.
underrated? what?..
His music was used in Hollywood films and Advertisings, that Mozart or Bethoven are popular knowledge doesnt mean it is underrated.
My father used to play this around Halloween.
Misty OjaiGirl......I did, too! 😈😉
This is the proper use of the "Dance of Death." It'll always be tradition for me, too.
Your father was a legend.
Amazing that he could play two pianos at once!
You have a wonderful father.
After hearing him improvise on the piano Franz List declared that Camile Saint Saens was the world's greatest composer. Born 1835 he was a prodigy who was giving concerts by 10. He was a brilliant student equally interested in Science Philosophy and literature he also wrote poetry I guess. Let's see: he was a contemporary of Brahms, List, Chopin, Wagner, Scriabin, Satie, Debussy, and Ravel, as well as Gustov Mahler, etc. That he and everyone else was overshadowed was inevitable. It's truly a testimonial to his genius that we know his music as well as we do. His music is full of melodic unpredictability and often harmonic complexity yet always has highly individual personality from composition to composition .

Cool* :)
After examining Satie’s Three Gymnopedies, which he’d submitted when he applied for membership in the Académie Française, Saint Saens rejected him.
L'Epouvantail that may all be true, but Satie submitted those works early in his career, before the bitterness set in and before he was very well known. Don’t get me wrong, I greatly admire Saint Saens as a composer, but his failure to recognize the supreme musicality of Satie’s works at this stage in the composers career has always disappointed me.
Did you study music?
In terms of sound I guess I prefer full ensemble just because certain instruments sound better on certain parts by virtue of being that instrument,,, but dear god the musicianship and skill that go into this duet is unimaginable
Yes, Definitely prefer the orchestral version. Also, those girls are too well behaved, even for this Victorian foray into "demonic" music.

True, but sometimes the piano just sounds so nice
I actually prefer violin piano version. But dang! Two piano is so damn good.
4:25 those chromatics in pianissimo has got to be the single most sexiest thing these ears ever eargasmed with! I mean that takes consummate skill and musicianship to perform with such perfection. Them 205 people that thumbed down this superlative performance.... let's talk.
Those pianos are bigger than my house
Is it true that you say that Camille was the best composer of all? :v
Hey, Liszt! Do you mean your house near god? That’s a shame.. i thought god was generous:(
Franz, do you play on harpsichord?
Hey litszt did you know that tom from tom & Jerry played one of your songs on an episode ?
I bet they cost even more lmao
This is the very best version of the Danse I've ever heard. Better than the orchestra. The arrangement is superb, and these those geniuses playing make it even greater. I don't get tired of saying this: CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH OF YOU. YOU ARE GREAT.
I agree. Bravo !!
I agree ^^
Love the organ version as well
by far not the best. Go for Sultanov.
Horowitz?
They sound like an orchestra!
Beautiful. Though I must say, I've never seen two concert grands in mating position before. Hopefully we'll soon have a healthy little baby grand :-)
😳
Of course. This is the source of the expression "69."
Это исполнение я прослушиваю хотя бы раз в неделю в течение уже нескольких лет и не устаю слушать. Спасибо за ваш талант!
Как же понимаю, это можно слушать бесконечно)
Ты наверно уже все выучил
This must be exactly what Saint-Saens felt when writing this piece of music. It's so pure!
I couldn't stop smiling though the entire piece. Bravo to the two ladies for the wonderful display of your talent.
Yeah this is more funny than Charlie Chaplin.
The type of people who really deserve fame
Why? Why do they deserve fame? Why is fame so important? So, what you imply is that their value is on the fame they can collect? Who cares the fame? What matters is that people with their values can exist and be appreciated, and so, what does fame have anything to do with that at all?
I got chills just within the first minute of this. Beautifully done!
Yep, right at 0:50! Can't help it... This composition is amazing. Just heard an organ performance of this, no word to describe it but macabre..
Titanic: Honor And Glory I hope you will put this piece of art on your game!
+Rockstar Pirate I NEED TO FIND THIS NOW! Link?

I came here because I can't play this in Magic Piano app
I can but the slow part is just like what?
Of course not, it takes 4 hands.
When you play Something so good in piano apps you feel like a famous pianist. Don't you?
As I watched this I literally cried because I didn’t know pianists could play with others. It’s so rare for a pianist to make music with someone, to listen to someone else and have someone else be listening to you. That this orchestral piece was arranged into duet form playable for piano makes me very happy.
Maybe you should check out a piano concerto or two? The piano is playing with the orchestra in that case.
Faba Bona oh, well I meant playing with your own section. And this probably makes no sense because that’s what pianists aren’t supposed to do. Also they sit at the corner of the stage far away from everyone else so it seems pretty lonely...
@@chantelletom-ying330 Oh, so- having a piano section? I think I got you now.
The only piece I can think off the top of my head with multiple pianos is Saint-Saëns' The Carnival of Animals.
Mozart wrote a concerto for 3 pianos and orchestra.
Rachmaninoff wrote “2” Suites for 2 Piano’s
Ravel wrote works for 2 piano’s. La Valse is one example.
It's entirely fitting that I listened to this, The Dance of Death, at midnight on 31 October 2019.
Same here but this morning (Nov 1, 2019)
Genius arrangement! You wouldn't be able to fit Danse on just one piano...
+Julia Livingston-Adams Horowitz did!
Well, I stand corrected. :) That guy must be some pianist.
Well, he did, yes, but even for Horowitz it doesn't sound nearly as good when played solo as when played 4-hands.
unless you're lizst, then you can fit a whole orchestra on just one piano
Well there's always Lizst. He figured it out :D
i dance to this in the cemetery on Halloween night
10/10 very spoopy
the edge
An orchestra is impressive but this is crazily great. I hope to be able to play like you at some point.
I was going to just listen while I did some coding, but this is as much fun to watch as it is to hear. Wow!
Never thought that this piece of music could be done on the piano. I am glad that I am sorely mistaken. Great job ladies!!!!!!! This is one of my favorite pieces of music. You have definitely done it justice. Thank you!!!!!!!
There is even a transcription for solo piano by Saint-Saëns’ friend Franz Liszt. After all, Liszt had composed his own Totentanz for piano and orchestra in his touring years.
The ending is just amazing. The way they're perfectly in sync is something else
I love the original better, but this is one of the best renditions of this song I have ever heard. Brilliantly played and with so much emotion! I love it!(:
"Danse Macabre" is not a song.
H R H Christ, dont be that person.
@@blackie126 ???
@@hrh2842 The music snob - you know exactly what I mean. For example, Biber's Passacaglia is not a "song" but if someone referred to it as such, it wouldn't be much of a big deal, if they were appreciating the music still.
@@blackie126 A song is something quite specific. Seems that, to you, knowledge is an undesirable. Ah, like the moral monstrosity in the WH, you, too, like the poorly educated.
I can't help but feel so full of passionate anger when listening to this
Who else agrees that the piano is the best instrument?
It's the organ, I think.
Piano is the best...
Organ violin piano.. i wish to master those three
And some flute etc
The organ is the king of instruments
Eddie Hutchence I think you mean viola
I am salivating
Трудно представить себе количество лет обучения и количество часов репетиций, необходимых для достижения такого совершенства в синхронизации. Поздравляем и благодарим вас за это прекрасное шоу!
It is hard to imagine the number of years of learning and the number of hours of repetition to achieve such perfection in synchronization. Congratulations, and thank you for this beautiful show !
