In Gambara, Balzac created a classic example of what is now a familiar archetype: the alienated genius of modern music. His wife and the Count were equally divided between the music and their surprise at this hundred-voiced instrument, inside which a stranger might have fancied an invisible chorus of girls were hidden, so closely did some of the tones resemble the human voice and they dared not express their ideas by a look or a word. Is not this proved by the preference accorded to a sketch rather than a finished picture when on their trial before those who interpret a work in their own mind rather than accept it rounded off and complete? The purest and serenest music that Andrea had ever listened to rose up from under Gambara’s fingers like the vapor of incense from an altar. This really angelic strain showed what treasures lay hidden in that stupendous opera, which, however, would never find comprehension so long as the musician persisted in trying to explain it in his present demented state. But the unfinished condition of the machine set limits to the composer’s execution, and his idea seemed all the greater for, often, the very perfection of a work of art limits its suggestiveness to the recipient soul. The effects of a real orchestra could not have been finer than the voices of the wind instruments, which were like those of an organ and combined wonderfully with the harmonies of the strings. To the great surprise of both Marianna and the Count, Gambara began with a succession of chords that proclaimed him a master and their astonishment gave way first to amazed admiration and then to perfect rapture, effacing all thought of the place and the performer. “Will you play me the prayer you say is so fine at the end of your opera?” said the Count. This strange-looking instrument, besides this second body and its keyboard, supported the openings or bells of various wind instruments and the closed funnels of a few organ pipes. Marianna, with some little difficulty, removed the covers from an instrument as large as a grand piano, but with an upper case added. And finally he announced that to conclude this preliminary inspection, which could only satisfy a superficial curiosity, he would perform on an instrument that contained all the elements of a complete orchestra, and which he called a Panharmonicon.
