He was never to surpass it in the ten years that remained to him. It became his last orientale . just as the Desert was the first. Although they diverge in important repects, each is essentially a set of miniatures, a narrative mode common to the aesthetic experience which David made his own . Lalla-Roukh . was clearly the great event of the season . Between the years 1862 and 1884 performances at the Salle Favart alone totalled 279." Veinus Hagan: Felicien David, pp. 166, 168.
