Thank you very much for this recording. It may not be perfect as some have noted but my ear is not keen enough to notice or care. I was lead here by a video of an old castle in the middle of a large forest in the Auvergne near the Loire river. And it mentioned this piece and since I already loved Camille Saint Saenz I had to listen - I am very glad I did.
splendide illustration de la musique folklorique de l'Auvergne sublimée par Saint Saens qui a su restituer ses rythmes à cette région de France comme Liszt l'avait fait pour sa rhapsodie hongroise.
@ivanparis11 ...sans oublier nos autres grands Français tels D'Indy (chantant les Cévennes dans sa Symphonie Montagnarde), Francis Casadesus (la Bresse dans sa Chanson de Paris) ou Joseph Canteloube (le Centre encore avec Le Mas & les Chants d'Auvergne). Ou Ropartz & Le Flem (et leur Bretagne natale), Frédéric Adam (les Vosges), ni les fins folkloristes que furent aussi Bizet & Gounod (Provence), Massenet (Alsace), Pierné (Pays Basque), Paul Paray (Normandie) et Charpentier (Paris & Montmartre)
Indeed the pianist is good but the orchestra is really off-tune. Listen to the Plasson (conductor) and Entremont (pianist) recording instead. The French interpretation school.
This poignant piece helped me keep going when I was deathly ill six years ago. It has such depth and beauty, and then the last 4 minuets so lively.
I love this piece. It is beautifully playex

Wonderful piece and played extremely well by the young pianist. Orchestra IS off tune at times, but remember they are a Youth Orchestra ;)
Does anyone know her name? This is one of my all-time favorite classical pieces and video.

et surtout pas Chabrier dans ce contexte !
Merci les gars pour ces citacions: je n’en savais rien!
i like the resolution at 4:05
Glenn Gould Studio... this place is my dream..
The pianiste is really good, but the orchestra had a big problem of intonation.....
I mean for high-school and middle school age they sound pretty good in my opinion!

Raymond Gervais Agreed. Disappointing.
