La riche famille Lanty organise une fête afin de faire étalage de ses richesses. Le narrateur oppose le côté tumultueux, clinquant et étincelant de la fête à l’hiver, avec ses arbres nus recouverts de neige. Le narrateur est en compagnie de Béatrix de Rochefide. Ils saluent quelques personnes importantes parmi lesquelles un vieillard dont l’aspect effarouche sa compagne. Plus tard, il lui racontera l’histoire de ce vieillard centenaire, ancien chanteur d’opéra, connu autrefois sous le nom de Zambinella.
