Operettas

  • Trop de femmes [Слишком много жён] (Ivan Turgenev, 1867-70); Opérette en 2 actes (or: Grand opéra en 2 petits tableaux). A work for voices and piano first staged at Baden-Baden in August 1867 and later revised. For the French libretto, see Turgenev, Sochineniya, vol. 12, pp. 7-25 (and cf. pp. 428-45). One item in this operetta, ‘Chanson de Noix de Coco’, was used first for Le Miroir (1869) and then for a revival of Trop de femmes in 1870; Harvard has a version of it entitled ‘Dans la plaine de Tombouctou’, from its opening words. Many drafts and fragments of manuscript music are to be found at the Médiathèque Hector Berlioz; at the Bibliothèque nationale de France, Fonds slave (Tourgueneff), no. 75; at RGALI, Moscow, f. 509 op. 4 yed. khr. 10; at Harvard; and in private collections. In addition to ‘Chanson de Noix de Coco’ (sometimes for voice and percussion), the extant pieces include ‘Je suis pacha’, ‘Pour charmer les/vos nobles loisirs’, ‘L’Invocation à Mahomet’, ‘Hassan méïr kalif erzroum’ (the wording varies!), ‘Chanson à boire’, ‘Qu’avec lenteur passe la vie’ and the berceuse ‘Dodo, gros pacha’.
  • Le dernier sorcier, VWV 2002 (or: Le Dernier des sorciers, or: Krakamiche [Craquemiche, Croquemiche]) [Последний колдун] (1867-69). Opérette fantastique en 2 tableaux (or: Fantaisie en 2 actes). A work for voices and piano first staged at Baden-Baden in September 1867.
Chanson de la pluie (Marthe's Song from Scene 3)
Chanson de Sarah "Donne-moi la main, Madame"
Chœur de jeunes filles dans la coulisse "La neige froide et blanche"
Sérénade "Entends tu ma belle"
Choeur Bohémien "Vrais enfants de la Bohême" (arr. for solo voice, women's chorus (SMzA), tambourine, triangle and piano)
  • L'ogre [Людоед], Conte de fées. Opérette fantastique en deux actes (Turgenev, 1868); A work for voices and piano first staged at Baden-Baden on 23 May 1868. "L'école des ogres en 2 actes": dramatis personae, outline of the plot and 15 musical numbers (ff. 1r-2v) -- drafts of poetical parts, and notes (3r-v, 4r-v, 5v, 6r). The extract most widely known is its opening Chœur des fileuses (‘Lorsque le soleil’), also several piano pieces including ‘Air de danse’ in 2-4 time; the Air d’Estambardos, ‘Ouf, quelle chaleur!’; the vocal trio ‘Belle princesse’; and the aria ‘Viens ici Naïna’. Harvard also has a number for a then planned character called Mariutza and chorus, ‘Quel est-il? ce jeune homme? Est-ce un prince? Quel air sombre et farouche’, a version of which in the operetta as performed was sung by the chorus only.
  • Le Miroir. Opérette en deux actes (Turgenev, 1869). A work for voices and piano no doubt staged once or twice in 1869. For the French libretto, see Turgenev, Sochineniya, vol. 12, pp. 132-68. The only pieces presently known from the music for this operetta are the chansonnette ‘Dans la plaine de Tombouctou’ (see under Trop de femmes, 1867) and part of the nocturne duet ‘Viens sur mon cœur, ma Dilara chérie’. Harvard has a manuscript of the former piece mentioned, and one of the latter is in a private collection (with ‘Léïla’ rather than ‘Dilara’). Harvard also has two variant manuscripts of the libretto, with some musical indications.
  • Le conte de fées [Сказка] (1879)

Choral works

  • La Jeune République "Paris est sorti du tombeau En renversant la sentinelle", text by Pierre Dupont (1848). This cantata with a march movement, scored for soloist (tenor or soprano) and mixed chorus with piano accompaniment, existed also in an orchestral form presumably not by the composer.
  • Choeur Bohémien "Vrais enfants de la Bohême" (from La Veillée de la Saint-Sylvestre) (1867)
  • Choeur des Elfes "Compagnes ailées, mes soeurs bien aimées" (1899)
  • Choeur de Fileuses (from the operetta L'ogre)

Paris: “Auditorium Musical”, G. Miran, Editeur. 1905. (See Bibliothèque nationale de France, Département de la Musique, Vm26 20596.) This march was perhaps connected with a so-called ‘défilé bohémien’ forming part of a show put on by the Société des humoristes at the Casino de Paris on 17 May 1905, in honour of Jacques Callot. See Revue illustrée, 1 May 1905, (unnumbered) pp. 2, 8; Le Gaulois, 5 May 1905, p. 1 col. d. The Médiathèque Hector Berlioz has a manuscript, entitled Marche bohémienne.
