In the press file of the Monte Carlo premiere of La Jacquerie, and in that of its revival at the Opéra-Comique in Paris nine months later, numerous aspects of the libretto and the score are analysed. But, astonishingly, this is not the case with the visual component: none of these articles gives an account of the different stagings of Lalo’s posthumous opera completed by Coquard.
