See all the cast

Envisioned in the flush of enthusiasm by Colette and thoroughly pondered by Ravel, this work rejects all theatrical conventions: how does one stage objects, animals, elements? A child doesn’t bother with materialistic matters when giving into fantasy and whims…

Lyric fantasy from a poem by Colette. Created at the Opéra Comique in 1926. Version for pianos.
