The libretto by Barbier and Carre is based on Goethe but focuses on the love story between Faust and Marguerite. <br/><br/>"The historical importance of Faust is that it sounded a new note in French music. The conventional pomposities of the grand opera which then dominated the stage were superseded by a more intimate and poetic approach. The fashion Gounod set was one of conversational exchange rather than declamation." James Harding: Gounod p. 114. Francesco Lucca [PNs 13851-13876] unknown books‎

OCLC no. 16852569.<br/><br/>La Reine de Saba to a libretto by Jules Barbier and Michel Carré after Gérard de Nerval's collections of stories Le voyage en Orient was first performed at the Opéra in Paris on February 28 1862. The English version by Henry Farnie was renamed Irene and interwove "certain legends and traditions of freemasonry." Wikipedia.<br/><br/>"The work was severely condemned by almost the entire Parisian press. In spite of Gounod's efforts to clarify motivations of the characters through thematic recollections critics were mystified by the racial origin of and ideological imperatives for the Balkis-Adoniram union; the opera was withdrawn after only 15 performances. With some revisions it fared better at the Théâtre de la Monnaie and became part of the repertory there in the 1860s and 70s. Performances in England in 1865 at the Crystal Palace where the title role became Irene and the setting was shifted to Turkey as well as a Parisian revival in 1900 were unsuccessful."

An expanded version of the opera was staged at the Opéra-Comique in Paris in 1866.<br/><br/>"Gounod's 12 operas span a range of the generic types available in French lyric theatre. Smaller works such as Philémon et Baucis and La colombe strike a balance between spoken dialogue and set pieces typical of opéra comique of the second quarter of the 19th century: relatively small-scale numbers with many strophic types among them are joined by long passages of dialogue. Musical depictions of frivolity are relatively few by standards of the genre contributing to the general tenor of these pieces as sentimental comedy." Steven Huebner in Grove Music Online.
