Conductor Speaks "Aviary" | Carnival of the Animals

In this video, conductor Morihiko Nakahara discusses Camille Saint-Saëns’s movement “Aviary.” The flute is the featured solo instrument, soaring from its lowest register to its highest in a brilliant technical display. Nakahara also highlights Saint-Saëns’s use of trills to create a lively, bird-like chirping effect. The video concludes with the South Carolina Philharmonic performing “Aviary” from The Carnival of the Animals.
