Camille SAINT-SAENS (1835-1921)
Carnival of the Animals
Animation featuring Ensemble Contrastes
Saint-Saëns’ classic fantasy work is brought to animated life this month in the form of the action packed story of Xylophonus, sent on a special space mission to bring fun back into the lives of the inhabitants of his planet, Oxyane.
With a host of bonus features designed to be both entertaining and educational, this 2 DVD set is aimed at introducing children to the music of Saint-Saëns but is guaranteed to appeal to a much wider age range.
