Chopin and Saint- Saëns, Pacific Chamber Symphony
Denis has eleven records to his credit earning rave reviews. “The excellent pianist Denis Pascal, very French in the best sense of the term, gave to the works of Debussy a magnificent expression and a vision perfectly mastered.” - Washington Post
Camille Saint-Saëns’s contribution to the symphonic form has multiple expressions of colors and power. His Symphony No. 2 in A minor travels through the dark beauty of the minor key to joyful rapture. This French masterpiece is not to be missed.
The Pacific Chamber Symphony
"Gloriously rich, deliciously delicate" says it all: a dynamic maestro, brilliant musicians, beautiful music, and a friendly atmosphere. A San Francisco-based 30-member orchestra, Pacific Chamber Symphony’s intoxicating sound melds chamber music’s intimate clarity with instrumental variety and symphonic power.
