In the period between 1871 to 1920 we can hear the variety of Saint-Saëns' writing styles - the Sonata No.1 (1885) is designed like Beethoven's 'Kreutzer' Sonata, with a romantic Lisztian feel; the Sonata No 2 (1896) shows a clear classical leaning. The Berceuse (1871) is a calm serene work, it has a simple, memorable melodic quality that places it close to Saint-Saëns's best-known piece, The Swan.
