Is there a plan to record it do you know?
This is wonderful news! I believe that this is Saint-Saens' essay in "verismo" and I am eager to hear it. Everything that Saint-Saens composed is, in my opinion, well worth hearing- more than once, so I am hoping for a recording. thank you!
I have no definitive information but assume since Palazzetto Bru Zane are involved there will be.
This is being broadcast today at 1905h CET on BR-Klassik:
