On 1 July 1874 at Spa, the Bashkirtseffs go to Gambart's musical soirée where Nadaud sings (020.0480, 020.0487: «Nadaud a raconté, une Anglaise a hurlé»). In April 1879 Marie, alone, sings «La Maison blanche» by Nadaud (084.0671). On 8 June 1882, at Marie's own soirée in the studio, Nadaud performs three or four songs at the beginning and the baritone Maurel at the end (095.0142).
