Description
The Silver Bell (Le Timbre d'Argent), by Saint Saëns, was first presented in 1877, although it had been written about a decade before. It is a fantasy opera—a fevered dream—which revolves around a magic silver bell which grants gifts of gold, when wished for, but at the cost of someone's death.
Happiness is an ethereal thing,
ever fleeting........
you strive to capture it,
and pursue it;
But is simply flies away!
