A grand opera in five acts to a French libretto from the play Faust et Marguerite by Michel Carre which was in turn loosely based on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Faust Part One. The piece follows Faust an aging scholar who determines that his studies have come to nothing and have only caused him to miss out on life and love. Written by Paul Jules Barbier a French poet writer and opera librettist and Michel Carre a prolific French librettist who often collaborated with each other. With the music by Charles-Francois Gounod usually known as Charles Gounod a French composer noted for church music and popular short pieces including his "Ave Maria" an elaboration of a Bach piece and "Funeral March of a Marionette". Previously held in the library of Felix Hubel a German entrepreneur publisher writer translator and collector. Dated from the Royal Academy of Music Library.

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.

An expanded version of the opera was staged at the Opéra-Comique in Paris in 1866.<br /> <br /> "Gounod's 12 operas span a range of the generic types available in French lyric theatre. Smaller works such as Philémon et Baucis and La colombe strike a balance between spoken dialogue and set pieces typical of opéra comique of the second quarter of the 19th century: relatively small-scale numbers with many strophic types among them are joined by long passages of dialogue. Musical depictions of frivolity are relatively few by standards of the genre contributing to the general tenor of these pieces as sentimental comedy." Steven Huebner in Grove Music Online.
