4.0 out of 5 stars Rare Saint-Saens worth hearing, 6 May 2004
Camille Saint-Saens was a brilliantly versatile composer who seems to have attempted almost every classical music genre from Operas, symphonies and concerti to sonatas and even film music. He seems to have experienced some success in each of these fields despite his style becoming unfashionable before the end of his long life. However, although many of his rarer works have been recorded his small output of ballet music is hard to come by. Indeed this is the first full length recording of Javotte.

The music is characteristically Saint-Saens - melodic, graceful and elegant whilst not falling into the trap of being too trivial or predictable. In short it's perfect ballet music! If you enjoy the ballet music of Delibes or Adam you will certainly find this an extremely appealing disc. Saint-Saens enthusiasts will also appreciate this rare chance to experience yet another aspect of their favourite composer.

The sound quality of the recording is excellent as is the playing itself (with particularly fine work from the strings). For a low price CD the sleeve notes are comprehensive with a history of the pieces and track-by-track plot synopsis. All in all great value for money. Don't expect a masterpiece here but do expect something which is inviting, interesting and above all enjoyable!
