LES CLOCHES DE CORNEVILLE is its composer's only title to fame, but it is a good one. When first produced at Paris in 1877 it had a run of 400 performances; since then it has lived through many a revival.
The plot is hatched by a miser (Gaspard) who converts someone else's money to his uses (which consist of gloating over it by night in a large chateau) and keeps enquirers at a distance by an organization of spooks and ghostly noises. There is a Gilbertian discussion as to which is the true heiress, and superstition, love, villainy and virtue are melted down to produce a happy ending.
