Charles-Camille Saint-Saens - born 1835

Today is the birthday of Camille Saint-Saens who wrote the Third ("Organ") Symphony in 1886, the finale of which is one of the most dramatic pieces of music ever written! It's one of my "Top Ten" works of classical music.
Sandra Sakata (link below) always had a bridal final for her fashion shows; I produced the shows for her and absolutely refused to use any of the usual wedding music. I found great joy and loved discovering beautiful, unusual and unexpected music for them.
For one of her shows I used the finale from the Saint-Saens Third ("Organ") Symphony for the wedding segment and it was stunning!
