<p>Anja Bihlmaier leads the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra in this symphonic Tour De France, arriving at a musical work like none other.</p> <p>The landscape of French music changed permanently in 1827, when Hector Berlioz fell head-over-heels in love with an Irish actress and set out to prove his love for her in music. Berlioz&rsquo;s <em>Symphonie fantastique</em> didn&rsquo;t just regale its listeners with all the torture, urgency and heroism of his love for the actress, it set a new course for music in France, urging other composers to invest their works with passion, humour, spirit and pride.</p> <p>All that was felt by the French composers who followed, among them the child prodigy Saint-Sa&euml;ns who filled his Piano Concerto No. 2 with everything from Bach to Offenbach - not forgetting its wild &lsquo;tarantella&rsquo; finale. Winner of the Clara Haskil Competition, Mao Fujita, plays Saint-Sa&euml;ns&rsquo;
