This is the first complete recording of the 1746 version, heavily revised by Rameau to adapt Voltaire's allegorical drama for Versailles into a lyrical opera with greater public appeal. (Information technology also failed.) From the liner annotation by Julien Dubrugque: "The Namur Chamber Choir, Les Agrémens and Guy Van Waas have respected the score completely in this recording; today this is a rare occurrence, for Rameau's music is likewise often disfigured by exactly those who merits to belong to the movement for historically informed performance. Here the ports de voix or appoggiature are long and not brusque; the harpsichord plays only when Rameau has indicated this with a figured bass in the score, this being when at that place are soloists to accompany instead of tinkling away continuously and industriously. In Rameau, the basso continuo is as a rule absent from choruses and purely instrumental sections. Guy Van Waas has not allowed himself to add various folk percussion instruments to each dance."

A fine performance and recording, fabricated in the Vienna Konzerthaus the 24-hour interval earlier the performance with some movements from the performance, including the encore -- a rollicking reprise of "Les Sauvages" with war whoops and audience participation. From Hugo Reyne'south liner notes about producing a new edition: "Actually, the study of the sources and the making of our ain edition of Les Indes galantes enabled us to restore the sequence of the Prologue, and that of the Ballet des Fleurs, to restore some deletions and cuts, while cutting some post creation additions, to put dorsum 1 air hitherto unreleased on CD (Bellona's air 'C'est la gloire'), to reassemble together some viola pieces (Adoration du soleil and Tremblement de terre in Les Incas). I: 77:21; Two: 58:21; III: 65:45. Text in French but -- English (first-class) and German translations were included with the 1991 Christie box set. My favorite recent recording - I've listened five times already.

Unfortunately, the original 1749 version remains unrecorded. This is some other recording of the 1756 version, as revised past Rameau to appease critics. It is preferable in about every respect to the 1983 Kuijken recording, reflecting the tremendous advances in early music functioning in the intervening twenty years and indeed may be the finest Rameau opera recording currently available. Highly recommended!

Rameau's original, 1733 version, portions of which may never have been performed until now. Overall, the operation is somewhat more satisfying than Minkowski'due south, simply technically the recording is much amend. While, in the words of Campra, "there is enough music in that opera [Hippolyte] to make ten", my favorite is the air and rondeau "Plaisirs, doux vainqueurs" for a follower of Cupid in the Prologue, on this recording performed to nigh perfection past Paul Agnew.

Downing A. Thomas. Aesthetics of Opera in the Ancien Régime: 1647-1785. Cambridge University Press. 320 pages. January 2003. "This is the first study to recognise the wide affect of opera in early on-modern French culture. The writer considers the use of operatic spectacle and music past Louis 14 as a vehicle for absolutism; the resistance of music to the aesthetic and political agendas of the time; and the long-term development of opera in eighteenth-century humanist culture. He argues that French opera moved away from the politics of the absolute monarchy in which information technology originated to address Enlightenment concerns with sensibility and feeling. The book combines close readings of pregnant seventeenth-century and eighteenth-century operatic works, circumstantial writings and theoretical works on theatre and opera, together with a measure out of reception history. Thomas examines key works by Lully, Rameau, and Charpentier, among others, and extends his achieve from the late seventeenth century to the end of the eighteenth." US | U.k. | DE | FR | CA | JP
