[PAR] [TLE] Cinderella [SEP] Cinderella (Italian: "Cenerentola" , French: "Cendrillon" , German: "Aschenputtel" ), or The Little Glass Slipper, is a folk tale embodying a myth-element of unjust oppression and triumphant reward.  Thousands of variants are known throughout the world.  The title character is a young woman living in unfortunate circumstances, that are suddenly changed to remarkable fortune.  The story of Rhodopis, recounted by the Greek geographer Strabo in around 7 BC, about a Greek slave girl who marries the king of Egypt, is usually considered as the earliest known variant of the "Cinderella" story.  The first literary European version of the story was published in Italy by Giambattista Basile in his "Pentamerone" in 1634; the most popular version was first published by Charles Perrault in "Histoires ou contes du temps passé" in 1697, and later by the Brothers Grimm in their folk tale collection "Grimms' Fairy Tales" in 1812. [PAR] [TLE] Cendrillon (Viardot) [SEP] Cendrillon is a chamber operetta with dialogue in three acts by Pauline Viardot based on the story of "Cinderella".  The work, for a cast of seven with piano orchestration, premiered in Viardot's Paris salon on 23 April 1904, when she was 83, and was published later that year.  Historians are unsure of when the opera was actually composed, although it is thought to be after the death of Viardot's friend (and possibly her lover) Ivan Turgenev in 1883 as he did not write the libretto.  It has been described as "a retelling of the Cinderella story with Gallic wit, Italianate bel canto, and a quirkiness all her [Viardot's] own."
