A short piece independently arranged as a piano work in 1871, based on music conceived for the musical drama “Le timbre d'argent” (premiered in 1887). The refined classical dance style, characterized by rich harmonies, is attributed to the style of E. Silas (1827–1909), to whom this work was dedicated. Silas was an elder contemporary of Saint-Saëns at the Paris Conservatoire and was active in late 19th-century London as an excellent organist and composer. Published by Durand.
