Le Timbre d'argent to a libretto by Jules Barbier and Michel Carré was first performed at the Théâtre Lyrique in Paris on February 23 1877. "Composed in 1864-5 for the Théâtre Lyrique Paris the opera was kept from the stage first by the theatre's bankruptcy then by the Franco-Prussian War and was not played until 1877. In the meantime Saint-Saëns had recomposed the dialogue to form a grand opera version which was not played until 1913. The music is enormously fluent and versatile . There are some bold scenic ideas including a theatre seen from the back of the stage and some fanciful transformations. It seems no coincidence that the opera's 18 performances in 1877 exactly coincided with Offenbach's first concentrated labours on Les contes d'Hoffmann." Hugh Macdonald in Grove Music Online.

ref. 271153 pp. of a bifolium. Octavo ca. 159 x 101 mm. Dated "Sunday." On black-bordered ivory mourning stationery. In French with translation. Saint-Saëns writes that his correspondent "has done well to be insistent" about the ending of an unidentified work and has implemented the necessary corrections. "This ending was necessary. 'L'ombre abrite' is impossible. I put 'dans l'ombre près del la fenêtre' and I substituted 'doux enfant' for 'jeune enfant'. That is obvious I know but it is a platitude. Never neither in prose nor in verse should one put a useless adjective. By finishing short and simple my piece gains a lot from this addition." Small annotation to blank final page. Slightly worn and soiled; creased at folds. "Like Mozart to whom he was often compared Saint-Saëns was a brilliant craftsman versatile and prolific who contributed to every genre of French music. He was one of the leaders of the French musical renaissance of the 1870s." Sabina Teller Ratner et al. in Grove Music Online. unknown
