Le Pré Aux Clercs

Hérold, biographie critique illustrée', Henri Laurens, Paris, 1906, p. 122 Performance history ''Le pré aux clercs'' was premiered in Paris by the Opéra-Comique company at the Salle de la Bourse on 15 December 1832. After the first performance the leading lady, Madame Casimir, refused – after unsuccessfully demanding more money – to sing in the subsequent performances, and Mlle Dorus of the Opéra was coached by Hérold over five days to take over the role of Isabelle. According to Hérold's biographer Arthur Pougin, this incident exacerbated the composer's ill-health, leading to his death five weeks after the premiere. The opera, Hérold's last completed one, was very successful, inaugurating the new Salle Favart in 1840, and enj ...

Hors Collection
Khors, Хорсъ is a Slavic god of uncertain functions mentioned since the 12th century. Generally interpreted as a sun god, sometimes as a moon god. The meaning of the theonym is also unknown: most often his name has been combined with the Iranian word for sun, such as the Persian '' xoršid'', or the Ossetian ''xor'', but modern linguists strongly criticize such an etymology, and other native etymologies are proposed instead. Sources Khors is the most frequently mentioned Slavic god, after Perun. He first appears in the '' Primary Chronicle'' letopis along with other gods to whom Vladimir the Great erected statues: The second source mentioning the god is ''The Tale of Igor's Campaign'': " Prince Vseslav was a judge for his subjects, he distributed cities among princes, but by night he ran like a wolf, from Kiev he ran to Tmutarakan, before the cock crowed, as a wolf he ran along the road of the great Khors." God is also mentioned in the apocryphal work ''Sermon and ...
