Misc. Notes Full score and parts ; this aria was newly orchestrated in order to perform the complete 1872 version (which survived only in vocal score) on stage at three venues (Théâtre de Saint-Dizier, Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin, Opéra de Reims) in 2016 when Mathieu Romano conducted the pit orchestra Les Frivolités Parisiennes. Their later studio recording of the 1888 version at Théâtre Impérial de Compiègne did not include these older numbers.
