It is music full of vitality and sensuality, beginning with the deeply felt chorale of the elegantly singing first movement. Particularly beautiful is the third movement with its immense, dreamy melodic lines, which ends in spherical tranquillity. Camille Saint-Saëns' piano quartet, composed a few years after the Franco-Prussian War, seems to be a dreamlike vision of reconciliation, marked by Saint-Saëns' sympathy for the German composers Bach and Schumann.More about the KammermusikfestMore about Mel Bonis | Composer to Discover 2026More about Claire-Mélanie Sinnhuber | Composer in Residence 2025/26Video recordings of past concertsPlaylist ‘Kammermusikfest 2026’ on Spotify
