Description

L.A.S. to a "Monsieur". 1 1/2 p., bifeuillet in-18 (small tear at one fold, traces of mounting on bl. verso). - In the copy of the chorus I sent you yesterday, I forgot to make the following two corrections: in the refrain: "nous l'acclamons" instead of "nous t'acclamons" - then: "au champ d'honneur / qu'elle soit" instead of "sois toujours" [...]". This is apparently the famous "soldiers' chorus" from Faust (act IV), although the second correction does not correspond to the canonical version of the text by Barbier and Carré. - Joint: 1. Saint-Saëns, Camille - Billet de remerciement aut. s. Toulouse, 23-12-[18]99. 18 x 23 cm, letterhead of the Grand Hôtel de l'Europe et du Midi (traces of folds). - 2 Glimes, Jules de - L.A.S. to "Mon cher Gounod". Brussels, 9-07-[18]72. 1 p. in-12 (traces of folds). The composer and singing teacher from Brussels details to his illustrious colleague the conditions of a concert at the Casino d'Ostende. (3 pcs)
