Conductor,
B. WALTON O'DONNELL
KATE WINTER (soprano)
This very popular rhapsody has helped very largely to make Chabrier's reputation abroad, whatever may have contributed to that in France. In point of fact, however, Chabrier is always spoken of as one of the principal forerunners of the modern French school. Among other compliments that have been paid to this rhapsody is that by Waldteufel, who wrote a set of waltzes upon the principal themes.
