Conductor Speaks "Wild Horses" | Carnival of the Animals

In this video, conductor Morihiko Nakahara discusses Camille Saint-Saëns’s movement “Wild Horses.” This energetic movement features two pianists playing a rapid, whirlwind flurry of notes. Both performers play identical material throughout, making it an intensely demanding and tightly synchronized piece. The video concludes with the South Carolina Philharmonic performing “Wild Horses” from The Carnival of the Animals.
