Conductor Speaks "Hens & Roosters" | Carnival of the Animals

In this video, conductor Morihiko Nakahara discusses Camille Saint-Saëns’s movement “Hens and Roosters.” This movement features several instruments and notably introduces the clarinet. The music playfully depicts hens and roosters scurrying about, creating a chirpy and perky musical character. The video concludes with the South Carolina Philharmonic performing “Hens and Roosters” from The Carnival of the Animals.
