Suite algérienne in C major, Op. 60 is a composition by Camille Saint-Saëns in four movements. The composer had a lifetime love for Algeria. In 1873, he visited it for the first time.

He composed a single-movement Rêverie orientale, which was performed in Paris on 7 June 1879 at a charity concert under composer's direction. His publisher Auguste Durand asked him to write more pieces like this one.

  • Suite algérienne in C major, Op. 60 is a composition by Camille Saint-Saëns in four movements. The composer had a lifetime love for Algeria. In 1873, he visited it for the first time. The theme of the third movement of the suite came to him during that visit.

His publisher Auguste Durand asked him to write more pieces like this one.

By the end of August composition was finished (he reported it in a letter to Durand written on 30 August). The whole suite had its first performance in Paris on 19 December 1880 with Édouard Colonne as conductor. The audience loved it and the composition was published by the next year with a dedication to Albert Kopff, an ophthalmologist of Alsatian origin, who became a friend of Saint-Saëns during his stay in Algeria. He was also an excellent pianist and published arrangements of works by Saint-Saëns under pseudonym A. Benfeld. (en)
