Born in 1835 in Paris, Camille Saint-Saëns showed musical talent from a very young age. He
played the piano at two and started composing by three. At 13, he entered the Paris Conservatoire. His exceptional skills on the piano and organ, along with his compositions, quickly made him famous. Saint-Saëns composed many beloved works. 'Carnival of the Animals' is a favorite, full of charm and humor. 'The Swan' from this suite is particularly beautiful, featuring the cello. He was an innovator, pushing the boundaries of classical music. His influence extended to other composers like Gabriel Fauré and Claude Debussy. Saint-Saëns continued to compose and perform throughout his life. He passed away in 1921, but his music lives on, inspiring generations.
