A review of an early performance- perhaps the premiere- appears in the Jan. 11 1896 issue of "La Chronique des arts et de la curiosité: supplément à la Gazette des beaux-arts" (and in other places); (prelude to the drama) Floréal by Amédée Dutacq was another work on the program, etc., by the Concerts Colonne et (de?) Lamoureux (and? of?) the National Society of Music.

Premiere December 29 1895 according to notes to first recording (Timpani 1C1093.)
