OPERA. – Jules MASSENET (composer). Chérubin. Comédie chantée en Trois Actes. Paris: Ménestrel, Heugel & Cie, 1905. First edition, signed by Jules Massenet to soprano Mary Garden, 4to (272 x 186mm.). Musical score. (Toned.) Original green cloth (rubbing to spine ends). Note: the inscription reads: ‘A Chérubin [printed] en personne/ à Mm. Mary Garden! En profonde reconnaissance/ J. Massenet, Monte-Carlo’. Jules Massenet had written the leading role in ‘Chérubin’ specifically for Mary Garden. She had risen to fame as a soprano through her work with Debussy, especially as ‘Mélisande’ in ‘Pelléas et Mélisande’. She also worked with Richard Strauss and found fame in America with Oscar Hammerstein in New York and soon became a household name. The premiere of Chérubin was in Monte-Carlo in 1905, where this inscription was written.
