Saint-Saens: Carnival Of The Animals (Narrated by Jimmy Fallon) [Vinyl]

Lang Lang joins forces with his wife, pianist Gina Alice, the Gewandhausorchester and the conductor Andris Nelsons to perform Saint-Saëns's "Grand Zoological Fantasy" for two pianos and orchestra. This special version includes readings of the much-loved comic verses written to accompany each movement of the work by American poet Ogden Nash (1902–1971). First voiced by Noël Coward on a recording issued in 1950, Nash's poems are here narrated by comedian and Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon.
