Voilà des félicitations qui ne sont pas banales ! Elles tranchent sur l'uniformité des autres. Merci cher ami.

" 2 sides correspondence card no place 8th March no year Samedi 8 mars Mon cher collègue Je suis très fâché que vous ayez pris la peine de venir chez moi sans me trouver. Le vendredi j'ai à la même heure la séance de la commission des auteurs et compositeurs je préférerais donc le mardi 18 Si cela peut s'arranger ainsi ce sera pour le mieux. Mais cependant s'il y avait une impossibilité je pourrais à la rigueur manquer la société des auteurs. Donc pour me résumer : de préférence le mardi 18 et si ce n'est pas possible le vendredi 14. J'attendrais votre convocation pour être fixé et vous pouvez compter sur moi. Mille compliments et bons souvenirs. Léo Delibes Saturday March 8 My dear colleague I am very sorry that you took the trouble to come to my house without finding me. On Friday I have at the same time the meeting of the commission of authors and composers so I would prefer Tuesday the 18th If that can work out that way it will be for the best. But nevertheless if there was an impossibility I could at worst miss the society of the authors. So to summarize: preferably on Tuesday the 18th and if that is not possible on Friday the 14th. I'll wait for your summons to be fixed and you can count on me. A thousand compliments and good memories. Léo Delibes unknown
21481Paris Saturday 12 November 1887. In French. 4 pp. 6½ x 4½ inches black borders in very good condition. Leo Delibes 1836-1891 French composer ends this letter with another reference to Lakmé: Veuillez me rappeler au bn souvenir de Madame Verheyden qui a été charmante dans Lakmé. Lakmé is an opera in three acts by Léo Delibes to a French libretto by Edmond Gondinet and Philippe Gille. The score written in 18811882 was first performed on 14 April 1883 by the Opéra Comique at the Salle Favart in Paris. Set in British India in the mid-19th century Lakmé is based on Théodore Pavie's story "Les babouches du Brahamane" and novel Le Mariage de Loti by Pierre Loti. Within the period 1883 to 1891 November 12 fell on a Saturday only in 1887. Lakmé opened later that month at the Opera House in Rouen. unknown
233364 pp. of a bifolium. Small octavo. Dated Monday evening December 5 between 1883 and 1891. On ivory paper with black borders. In French with translation.<br /> <br /> Having returned to Paris Delibes is anxious for news of the second run of his opera Lakmé. Because his correspondent's letter was delivered to the wrong address he has had to seek information elsewhere. Unfortunately another audience member has told him that the tenor and "basse chantante" have weak voices. Delibes suggests they replace the latter with a certain "Monsieur Schmidt" in order to increase ticket sales. In January he and his correspondent will discuss his opera Le Roi l'a dit which premiered at the Opéra-Comique on May 24 1873.<br /> <br /> "Unfortunately a more recent letter.tells me that our tenor is always weak as well as the 'basse chantante' i.e. high lyric bass and that the whole weight of the performance rests on Madame Alice Verheyden who alone has some success in the work. I add that these reports do not come from her husband!"<br /> <br /> Slightly soiled and foxed; creased at folds. "Delibes's workmanship was of the highest order; he had a natural gift for harmonic dexterity and a sure sense of orchestral colour and nothing in his music is out of place. He was a disciplined composer and it is tempting to see in the exquisite pastiche dances that he composed in 1882 for Hugo's Le roi s'amuse not just a sharp ear for style but a genuine feeling for the world of 17th-century French classicism later to be espoused with such ardour by Saint-Saëns d'Indy and Debussy." Hugh Macdonald in Grove Music Online.<br /> <br /> Lakmé is considered the composer's masterpiece. It offers more than just a fine vehicle for a star soprano; the two principal male characters Nilakantha and Gérald are firmly drawn and the music is melodic picturesque and theatrically strong. The opera was first performed at the Opéra-Comique Salle Favart in Paris on April 14 1883. <br /> <br /> Delibes's correspondent Miral was perhaps the director of the Théâtre Municipal de Nancy. If this is the case it is quite likely that the production mentioned in this letter took place there. unknown

But personally he doesn't want to do anything; this is an absolutely firm stance. Only his brewery could benefit from the success of the thing.

233083 pp. of a bifolium. Small octavo. Dated "Thursday morning." In French with translation. <br/><br/>Delibes would like to see his friend to discuss some issue of importance. He also mentions several prominent musical figures in Paris: the baritone Jacques Bouhy; Philippe Gille the co-librettist of Delibes's opera Lakmé; Halanzier a director at the Paris Opera; and Léon Carvalho director of the Opéra-Comique. <br/><br/>"In spite of everything Carvalho wants all the same to go ahead and at full steam. When one speaks to him of waiting. he jumps to the ceiling and does not accept any hesitation. This is very embarrassing." <br/><br/>Slightly worn and creased. "Outside the theatre for which Delibes wrote nearly all his music his most notable work was as a composer of choruses now undeservedly neglected. His output of songs was relatively small and that of instrumental and church music almost negligible. His cantata Alger 1865 attracted much attention at the time but has lain in obscurity since. Despite his poor record at the Conservatoire his workmanship was of the highest order; he had a natural gift for harmonic dexterity and a sure sense of orchestral colour and nothing in his music is out of place. He was a disciplined composer and it is tempting to see in the exquisite pastiche dances that he composed in 1882 for Hugo's Le roi s'amuse not just a sharp ear for style but a genuine feeling for the world of 17th-century French classicism later to be espoused with such ardour by Saint-Saëns d'Indy and Debussy."
