Product Description

Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of Jean-Philippe Rameau with his captivating album "Rameau: Pygmalion & Les Fêtes de Polymnie." Released on September 1, 2017, under the Aparté label, this classical masterpiece offers a rich and diverse listening experience that spans over an hour and twelve minutes.

The album is a beautiful blend of two distinct works by Rameau. The first half is dedicated to "Pygmalion," a ballet based on the Greek myth of the same name. This act de ballet is a stunning display of Rameau's compositional prowess, featuring a variety of musical styles and moods. From the dramatic ouverture to the graceful contredanse, each track tells a part of the story of Pygmalion and his statue, Galatea. The album also includes several arias and recitatives, sung by Pygmalion, Galatea, and other characters, which add a vocal dimension to this instrumental work.

The second half of the album is devoted to "Les Fêtes de Polymnie," a suite d'orchestre that showcases Rameau's ability to create lively and engaging dance music. This suite is a feast for the ears, with a variety of movements that range from the majestic and grave to the lively and gay. Each movement is a testament to Rameau's skill as a composer and his deep understanding of the musical styles of his time.

Throughout the album, Rameau's mastery of harmony and counterpoint is evident, as is his ability to create music that is both intellectually stimulating and emotionally resonant. Whether you're a seasoned classical music enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, "Rameau: Pygmalion & Les Fêtes de Polymnie" is sure to captivate and delight you. So, sit back, relax, and let the enchanting music of Jean-Philippe Rameau transport you to another time and place.
