About This Song

About "Le carnaval des animaux, R. 125 : Saint-Saëns: Le carnaval des animaux, R. 125: I. Introduction et marche royale du lion" by Martha Argerich

Argerich and company summon a lion's regal swagger—pianos roaring, strings prowling. The march is pomp with a wink, majesty undercut by sly wit. Beneath the royal fanfare, a cagey energy: the king of beasts, aware he's performing.
