Société Nationale de Musique
"L'horizon chimérique" had its premiere at the Société Nationale de Musique on 13 May 1922, sung by baritone Charles Panzéra, to whom the cycle was dedicated. He was accompanied on the piano by his wife, Magdeleine Panzéra-Baillot. This concert also premiered Fauré's Cello Sonata No. 2. Shortly afterwards, on 20 June the Panzéras contributed a performance of "L'horizon chimérique" to a celebration of Fauré's works held in the Sorbonne's Grand Amphitheatre, attended by President of France Alexandre Millerand.
