I don't know if its the absolute best but I have a 2 disk set with the
Nash ensemble on the Virgin label that I absolutely adore. The price is
good and as far as Saint-Saens is concerned, the best piece on the disk
is the Septet for trumpet, strings & piano. Saint-Saens Piano Trio and
a chamber arrangement of the Carnival of Animals is also in the set. The
second disk contains a trio and a Quintet by Dvorak. This disk has got me
interested in hearing some more Saint-Saens also.
