A concert in which German Romanticism and French Romanticism engage in a dialogue, revealing as many differences as there are similarities. Wagner guides the listener into a contemplative state bordering on ecstasy, while the sensual phrasing of Saint-Saëns’s Cello Concerto unfolds alongside Debussy’s Impressionist evocation of nature.
