This Adagio, arranged by Saint-Saëns from the music of Bach for piano, is marked by a quiet lyrical quality. A long-breathed melody and its supporting accompaniment form a continuous musical flow, while careful attention to the exchange between voices and the changing harmonies reveals the depth of the writing. The piece should not be hurried; shaping the climaxes of each phrase and allowing the resonance to fade naturally are essential. Let the melody sing fully while keeping the accompaniment restrained, and use the pedal in accordance with the harmonic changes so that the sound remains clear.
