"The revue de fin d'année was a Parisian tradition that had its origins in the eighteenth century and continued into the twentieth. Toward the end of the calendar year, the managers of the boulevard theaters and their staff writers and composers began constructing elaborate musical shows with many tableaux (changes of scene) and scentic effects that would highlight and parody historical and cultural events of the past year, with the first performace generally taking place toward the middle or end of December ... The present edition makes available the music of the revue de fin d'année for 1857 at the Théâtre des Variétés, Ohé! les p'tits agneaux!, by Théodore Cogniard (the brother of Hippolyte Cogniard, the manager of the Variétés, 1855-69) and Clairville (Louis-François Nicolaïe)."--Page xii. |
| Summary |
"This edition presents, for the first time ever, the complete text and music of a nineteenth-century Parisian revue de fin d'année, providing a glimpse into an aspect of the theatrical and musical life of Paris that has generally been overlooked by scholars. Ohé! les p'tits agneaux!, the revue put on by the Théâtre des Variétés for the year 1857, was a gigantic theatrical spectacle in three acts and ten tableaux, with ninety-one separate roles played by twenty-three men and eighteen women, including extras, chorus, and dancers. Its music was assembled from popular tunes and musical theater pieces of the time, and its libretto (by playwrights Théodore Cogniard and Clairville) provides bitingly humorous commentary on contemporary events and theatrical productions." -- Provided by publisher. |
