In a letter from 1916, Camille Saint-Saëns wrote: “The voice is the most beautiful instrument; all others are only a more or less distant imitation.” This great appreciation for singing is reflected in his numerous vocal works, which encompass well over a hundred songs and around 20 pieces for choir, including the Deux chœurs from 1882 and 1883 - two movements in the rare in a rare voicing for mixed choir in Saint-Saëns’ vocal oeuvre.
Here Saint-Saëns set two nature poems, which he possibly wrote himself. Radiating a profound tranquility, Calme des nuits describes the vastness and stillness of the night, in which every single sound can resonate in the soul. Les fleurs et les arbres praises the comfort that we can draw from nature as well as from art.
