About "Le carnaval des animaux, R. 125 : Saint-Saëns: Le carnaval des animaux, R. 125: I. Introduction et marche royale du lion" by Pascal Rogé
Saint-Saëns' royal lion marches with pompous strings and a regal piano fanfare. The introduction bristles with faux majesty, yet a sly undercurrent suggests the beast's cage is never far away. It's a grand, theatrical procession with a wink of irony.
