Description:
To this day, neither a historical nor a modern edition of this pretty one-act opera by Rameau, which was premiered in 1754 at the Fontainebleau Theatre, exists.
The patchy source material made it necessary to carry out a careful scholarly reconstruction. As usual, Rameau shines here in the form of (virtuosically demanding) ariettes, choruses and dances. This piano reduction finally allows practitioners to appreciate the extraordinary quality of this music.
