... quite unexpectedly, kangaroos with starched white caps start hopping about between the rows of seats, offering refreshments. The Great Zoological Fantasy was composed in February 1886 for a carnival concert in Paris. After the first concerts, Saint-Saens prohibited all further performances and declined to have the work published during his lifetime. He was justifiably fearful that this occasional work could eclipse his more ambitious pieces. The present Urtext edition by Peter Jost is based chiefly on the autograph, which diverges in certain essential points from the standard first edition available up to now. Loriot's well-known text is printed in the Appendix to the score.

Saint-Saens' popular work The Carnival of Animals has now been published as a Spanish edition in the series Get to Know Classical Masterpieces. The easy piano arrangement of the 'grand zoological fantasy' is framed by colourful, imaginative illustrations and introduces every piano player to the orchestral work with fun - with the roaring of the lion, the clucking of the chickens, the heavy tread of the elephants, or the jumping of the kangaroos.
