Ballet in one prologue and three entrées. Par RAMEAU JEAN-PHILIPPE. 'Les Fêtes d'Hébé' or 'Les Talents Lyriques' (1739) belong to the highly opulent ballet opera genre, which was only common in 18th century courtly France. Rameau's 'Indes Galantes' (1735) is often considered the pinnacle of this “mixed” genre, which connects instrumental music, song and dance in the form of a prologue with subsequent entrées through a general theme. With 'Les Fêtes', however, the composer succeeded in creating another masterpiece of Baroque operatic art, which is not inferior to the 'Indes Galantes' in its musically kaleidoscopic diversity. This full score, which brings together all the instrumental numbers of all versions based on volume IV.4 of the 'Opera Omnia Rameau' (BA06688-01), offers the possibility to play this precious music in the form of a suite as a concert performance. Rameau orchestrated several of his best-known 'Pièces de clavecin' for this work, and the third Entrée in particular is rich in that yearning, nostalgic music of Rameau that immediately captivates the audience. / Date parution : 2024-01-06/ Répertoire / Orchestre
