1870877761870. Fine. An exceedingly rare Saint-Saëns unpublished score novembre 1870 33.20 x 24.50 cm un bifeuillet Unpublished and signed autograph score by Camille Saint-Saëns. Two pages of handwritten music for solo voice and piano on an oblong bifolium with twenty staves. Autograph inscription on the first page signed by Saint-Saëns with his signature and date ""Nov. 1870"" appearing again on the second page. Trace of vertical fold with a tiny tear along the fold a small marginal tear on 1 cm of the first page without damage to the manuscript. An exceptional unpublished autograph manuscript of a Persian melody for voice and piano composed by Camille Saint-Saëns during the Siege of Paris in November 1870 enriched with a autograph inscription: 'A Geneviève Bréton / Hommage de respectueux dévouement' To Geneviève Bréton / In homage with respectful devotion signed and dated on the second page 'Nov 1870 C. Saint Saëns'. The lyrics of the piece were directly inspired by its dedicatee the fiancée of the painter and tenor Henri Regnault 'the most musical of all the painters' Saint-Saëns École buissonnière translation by Edwin Gile Rich who was the first performer of several other Mélodies persanes. Geneviève Bréton a cultured and passionate woman was a fixture in the literary and artistic salons of her time surrounded by composers painters and the young Parnassian poets of her generation. Saint-Saëns likely met her through his friend the orientalist painter Henri Regnault a Prix de Rome laureate with whom she fell madly in love in Italy in 1867. A handsome young man already celebrated for his art Regnault also fascinated Saint-Saëns with his 'exquisite tenor; voice . alluring in its timbre and irresistible in its attractiveness just as he was himself' as the composer would later recall in 1913. Regnault premiered several of his compositions: 'In 1868 Regnault was the first to embody the role of Samson in the second act of the celebrated opera Samson et Dalila created during a private evening performance. Saint-Saëns renewed their collaboration by entrusting the artist with two of the Mélodies persanes composed for tenor voice.' Manon Bertaux. The Mélodies persanes op. 26 based on verses by the Parnassian poet Armand Renaud consist in their published version of three works for tenor Sabre en main Au Cimetière Tournoiement and three for contralto La Brise La Splendeur vide La Solitaire. They form one of Saint-Saëns's most famous cycles and belong to the golden age of French mélodie. This manuscript for voice and piano with its ardent colourful tone can unquestionably be linked to this set of melodies begun in June 1870 and sold by Saint-Saëns to his publisher Hartmann shortly afterwards. However Manon Bertaux's research has shown that 'the composer sold Hartmann an incomplete cycle having composed his final melodies at the beginning of the Siege of Paris from September onward"". Dated November 1870 our melody - as far as we know unknown to biographers and musicologists - is one of those composed in the midst of the Franco-Prussian war: 'Serving as a National Guard during the Siege of Paris Saint-Saëns continued his activities as a musician and composer alongside his duties guarding the ramparts'. It appears that both the text and music of this composition remained entirely unpublished and were never sent to Hartmann. For his part the painter Henri Regnault enlisted as a maverick also risked his life in an attempt to break the siege much to the dismay of Geneviève who confided her worries in her now famous diary Ramsay 1985. The young lovers had finally become engaged after years of opposition from the young woman's mother. Saint-Saëns likely offered this exquisite melody to Geneviève as a betrothal gifta radiant piece of warmth for the anxious young woman and here is the first of its two verses: « Ka-douja la chanteu-se Au manteau noir Qu'on trouve sous l'y-eu-se Quand unknown
