Publication date 1938
The (world?) premiere of Les récréations de la campagne took place in Paris on December 5, 1929, and, as far as is known, in the USA at the Roerich Museum in New York on February 4, 1930. many years later it was passed off as a divertissement allegedly composed by Charles-Francois Clément (1719-1799) and allegedly danced around 1762 by the ballerina Marie-Madeleine Guimard. It originally consisted of four parts: Sentier fleuri, Colin-Maylard, Menuet galant and Le Cabaret. In 1933, French newspaper broadcast lists began to attribute the work to Casadesus, although Clément was still credited as the composer in 1944. Meanwhile, a version for piano solo was published by Salabert in the year of Casadesus's death, with a different movement, (La) Ronde des amours. The autographed score of the manuscript and a set of parts of the manuscript are held by the Bibliothèque nationale de France in Paris, whose catalog does not list the mechanisms. It is not known when the original closing movement was replaced and the fifth movement recorded here was added.
