Description:
After Hippolyte et Aricie and Castor et Pollux, Dardanus is Rameau's third tragédie lyrique for Paris. With its multifaceted music, it is an absolute highlight of this genre. Its reception is very special because it was performed in two distinctly different versions within just five years.
The plot revolves around the love story between the young warrior Dardanus and Iphise, daughter of King Teucer, against whom Dardanus is waging war. The young woman is actually promised to Anténor, one of Teucer's allies, and succumbs to forbidden love. After various adventures and the intervention of the goddess Venus, she joins forces with Dardanus and together they finally break Teucer's intransigence.
The new critical edition by Denis Herlin offers for the first time the possibility of restoring the May 1744 version as well as the 1739 version. At the same time, its appendices give performers the complete material to play the version of April 1744, many parts of which have not been heard since. Last but not least, the changes from the successful 1760 revival are included.
