1770réf. 32214Paris: Aux Adresses ordinaires . Lion M. Castaud . M. Serrieres 1770. Folio. Full contemporary green vellum with octagonal cut paper label to upper with titling in manuscript. 1f. rec to title verso dedication 134 pp. Engraved. With overpaste of Parisian music publisher "Bailleux" to imprint. From the collection of the American composer and conductor Gene Forrell 1915-2005 with his signature and embossed London address to endpapers. Binding slightly worn rubbed and bumped; vellum to hinge and upper board split. Light uniform browning. First Edition second issue. Lesure p. 263. Sonneck: Dramatic Music p. 69. Hirsch II 361. RISM G4438. Silvain to a libretto by Marmontel after S. Gessner's Erast was first performed in Paris at the Comedie Italienne Bourgogne on February 19 1770. "Grétry's operas which enjoyed such a vogue in France. cannot be judged without the contribution of his librettists. Nevertheless full credit must be given to his own contributions to the planning partly revealed in his Réflexions d'un solitaire as well as his unrelenting desire to extend the scope of both opéra comique and opéra. Grétry's very attractive melodic gift was an essential ingredient and helps justify the occasional revival of his music. With his librettists he brought to life a range of splendidly imagined characters ranging from bumpkins to monarchs or from a rebellious female warrior to the murderous Bluebeard. His best scores had wide currency especially in Germany: it is hard to imagine the evolution of opéra comique and Romantic opera in general without the part played by his works."

A comédie-parade in one act to a libretto by Louis Anseaume Le Tableau Parlant was first performed in Paris at the Comédie-Italienne Hôtel de Bourgogne on September 20 1769. "The originality of Grétry's opera emphasized by Grimm in the Correspondance littéraire is founded on its witty approach to the characters: the music dovetails sudden changes in their feelings and in particular captures ironic and self-ironic expressions. The farcical side of the opera is counterbalanced by lyrical amorous duets between the two couples." Michael Fend in Grove Music Online. "Grétry's operas which enjoyed such a vogue in France. cannot be judged without the contribution of his librettists. Nevertheless full credit must be given to his own contributions to the planning partly revealed in his Réflexions d'un solitaire as well as his unrelenting desire to extend the scope of both opéra comique and opéra.

RISM Écrits p. 379. The first volume was published in 1789 and reissued when the two additional volumes were first published in 1797. Grétry "made decisive contributions to the scope and style of the 18th-century opéra comique and to technical aspects such as musical 'local colour' and the design of overtures. His opéras comiques and recitative comedies for the Paris Opéra enjoyed unparalleled success in the 20 years up to the French Revolution. Many of his works were staged abroad and a number were revived in the early 19th century in Paris: several survived through the middle decades albeit with updated orchestration. . His Mémoires are essential reading for the detailed account of his operas his musical and dramatic theories and his unabashed self-projection." M. Elizabeth C. Bartlet and David Charlton in Grove Music Online. L'Imprimerie de la République, Pluviôse, An V. unknown
