About This Song

About "Le carnaval des animaux, R. 125 : Saint-Saëns: Le carnaval des animaux, R. 125: XIII. Le cygne" by Christopher Van Kampen

Saint-Saëns's swan glides through van Kampen's cello with poised melancholy—each phrase a curve of water, a neck arched toward twilight. The calm is exquisite, but beneath it runs a current of loneliness. Elegance as quiet heartbreak.
