Solo violoncello,
CHARLES HAMBOURG from the Pavilion, Bournemouth
Saint-Saens's 'Cello Concerto No. i in A minor was composed in 1872 and first performed at a Paris Conservatoire concert in the following year. In its construction it shows the influence of Liszt, for it is in one continuous movement, consisting of three sections that in outline correspond to the three movements of classical procedure. But these sections are all thematically related to each other: the music is almost entirely based on the thematic material announced in the opening allegro section.
The ' Eroica ' was at first inscribed to Napoleon Bonaparte, but the democratic Beethoven's fury at Napoleon's proclaiming himself Emperor made him alter the dedication, though the ideal the composer had in mind remained to inspire the music. Attention may be briefly drawn to the heroic nature of the themes and the structure of the work as a whole, but particularly in the case of the first movement and the famous Funeral March movement.

A Lovely Tone Picture
The Prelude to Mussorgsky's Khovansh- china, an opera which he began immediately after Boris, but never finished, is one of the loveliest tone-pictures in the whole range of Russian music. It depicts dawn in the famous Red Square, Moscow-the sleeping city, the quiet flow of the river. Presently the clang of bells ringing for matins is heard. The sunlight begins to glitter on the cupolas of the Kremlin. ... This peaceful tone-picture is in striking contrast with the violence and turbulence of the drama it introduces.
Tchaikovsky's Pathetic Symphony
In his analysis of Tchaikovsky's ' Pathetic' Symphony, Sir Donald Tovey says : ' Nowhere else has he concentrated so great a variety of music within so effective a scheme ; and the slow finale, with its complete simplicity of despair, is a stroke of genius which solves all the artistic problems that have proved most baffling to symphonic writers since Beethoven. The whole work carries conviction without the slightest sense of effort; and its most celebrated features, such as the second subject of the first movement, are thrown into their right relief by developments far more powerful, terse, and highly organised than Tchaikovsky has achieved in any other work.'
