In this work
I gave everything I had
to give. [...] What I did
here I will never do
again.
Camille
Saint-Saens was
justifiably proud of his
Symphony No. 3 in C minor
op. 78, dedicated to the
memory of Franz Liszt.
Like Beethoven's Ninth,
this so-called Organ
Symphony was commissioned
by the Philharmonic
Society in London, where
it received its premiere
on 19 May
1886.
In this
first scholarly-critical
edition of the symphony,
a great many
inconsistencies and
mistakes inherent in the
previously used edition
have been unveiled and
corrected.
The
edition of Symphony No. 3
marks the launch of a
large-scale project: the
publication of Camille
Saint-Saens - Complete
Edition of the
Instrumental Works. This
performing Urtext edition
is based on volume BA
10303 from that
series.
