SAINT-SAËNS Camille (1835 - 1921)
L.A.S. "C. Saint-Saëns", London 2 June 1893, to Ernest REYER| 2 pages and a half in-8.
He thanks him for his article [on Phryne]: "Your praises are roses, and as such are not without some thorns which add to their charm. You thus recognize that I fall with some grace!
You will never make me believe that you have not understood the ironic and mocking meaning of the bassoon, otherwise I would ask you the meaning of repeated slides of the harp which astonished the universe in Salammbô, which God forbid! because I consider that the mysteries must remain mysteries and that it is not appropriate to deepen everything, just to laugh a bit between immortals as did the gods of Homer in their Olympus!...
