1890142346Paris: Paul Ollendorff 1890. A fine "Banquet Years" association First edition an exceptional presentation copy to the proprietor of the famed Montmartre cabaret Le Chat Noir inscribed on the half-title "À Monsieur Rodolphe. Salis Hommage de l'auteur Ch. Gounod". This work a study of Mozart's Don Juan reveals its particular importance to Gounod and its continuing influence on his life and work: "The score. has had an influence on my whole life akin to a revelation; it was and has remained for me a kind of embodiment of dramatic and musical faultlessness; I consider it a work without a flaw of uninterrupted perfection" our translation. The connection between Gounod and a famous Parisian cabaretier may seem a surprising one at first but the composer had a very close relationship with Le Chat Noir contributing critical work to the establishment's weekly magazine; Ravel Satie Massenet and Fauré were also keen supporters of the cabaret. Also significantly themes from Gounod's Faust were used by Albert Tinchant when he arranged the score for La Tentation de Saint Antoine a shadow play - "féerie à grand spectacle en 2 actes et 40 tableaux" - based on Flaubert's book and designed by painter-designer Henri Rivière who developed these "ombres chinoises" for which Le Chat Noir became famous. Gounod's "Ronde du veau d'or" accompanies part three of the tableau L'Avarice entitled "La Bourse" and music from the final scene of Faust is employed for the "Apothéose". Octavo. Unopened in original cream printed stiff paper wrappers. Wrappers just a little rubbed very occasional spotting to the text an excellent copy.
