Produced for Fromental Halévy's composition class, the piece served as a practical training exercise for the preliminary rounds of the Prix de Rome, which required students to set chorus texts from earlier French operas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this assignment, Bizet selected a text by Eugène Scribe from Act II of Henri Reber's 1848 opéra-comique, La Nuit de Noël. Scored for a six-part mixed chorus and orchestra, the composition sets lyrics portraying the waltz as a winter pastime that drives away dark memories. The piece is presented here in a modern edition by musicologist Hugh Macdonald.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fishergate Music","offers":[{"title":"Full Score","offer_id":46350052360271,"sku":"FGM1008","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Choral Octavo","offer_id":46350052687951,"sku":"FGM1008-VS","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/4043995a5b9ee42200b0d19fd554e8a1.png?v=1785866602","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/zh\/products\/bizet-valse-avec-chur-fishergate","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
