I was.  :-[

My guess was his Variations on the Chorus from Judas Maccabaeus.

I was guessing carnival of the animals. Then I realsies that's not short and figured it was aquarium or "the pianist"
Just here to lurk and cringe at my old posts now.

Beautiful ! !  always loved this piece! :)

btw, since "the Swan" is mainly a cello piece,
is the post about the piano "accompaniment"?

Saint Seans is beyond fantastic! I love this piece, but my favorite by him is Aquarium.
