Music: The Dancers, incomparably the best Groupe in Europe, exerted themselves very successfully; D'Auberval's Drunkenness was well managed; Rossi's Fainting Fit, her Agitation preceding it, and her Revival from it; Lepicq's hovering over Rossi, when in the Swoon, and in his Separation from her, were all told very expressively indeed.
