Relevance to Marie

At a pupils' concert in Nice on 17 April 1875 she writes that after the singing «Laussel et Damoreau ont joué à deux pianos l'ouverture de "Tannhaüser" je crois, puis la dame a chanté» (031.0261); the pupils of Mme Damoreau sang badly but with good method. She is not sure of the piece (je crois).
