The first performance of La Colombe took place at the Théatre de Bade in Baden-Baden on August 3 1860 under the direction of Edouard Bénazet. An expanded version of the opera was staged at the Opéra-Comique in Paris in 1866. "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.

"Gounod arrived at the French Academy in Rome at the end of January 1840. Little there sustained his musical interest. He excoriated performances of operas by Donizetti Bellini and Mercadante composers he later characterized as mere 'vines twisted around the great Rossinian trunk without its vitality and majesty' and unable to match that composer's spontaneous melodic gifts. Gounod was however genuinely moved by performances of Palestrina at the Cappella Sistina and more generally by the cultural legacy of Rome in the other arts a legacy he felt that musicians could ill afford to ignore. His Roman experience laid the foundation for the stark comparison he drew in his aesthetics between on the one hand a universally appealing combination of beauty truth and Christianity and on the other egoism artifice and insularity. He described stile antico counterpoint as a selfless analogue to Michelangelo's frescoes issuing from pure Faith." Steven Huebner in Grove Music Online A fine example of a Gounod working manuscript in the composer's elegant hand displaying how he skillfully wove together counterpoint orchestration and compositional structure; well worthy of further study. unknown
