title = "Orchestra and Chorus at the Com{\'e}die-Italienne (Op{\'e}ra-Comique) 1755-1799",
abstract = "This is wholly devoted to presenting the results of archival studies in Paris, using the manuscript 'Registres' of the theatre in the Biblioth{\`e}que de l'Op{\'e}ra. Successive tables show the precise constitution of the orchestra year-on-year, plus information on the chorus as it grew annually. The sources are described in some detail, because they reveal extra information about more unusual instruments, and even about conducting practices.",
