Dear Robin, I wish you could get a chance to listen to J. E. Gardiner's rendition of "Les Fêtes d'Hébé" (Paris, Théâtre des Champs Élysées, January 1981), then you're bound to fall in love with JPR's music for the second time, eh! Unfortunately this is a radio recording not available on CD as far as I know. It's on a par with Gardiner's Boréades recorded a year later, with which you're probably familiar with. Maybe they'll be able to clean it up, with the help of AI or whatever, and finally make it widely available some day soon!
A quite brillant rendition of the purely instrumental parts of this masterful and should I say, inspired and inspirational opera, of which there are two main versions (1737 & 1754). The vocal and choral parts are equally impressive, so listening to William Christie's and Charles Farncombe's respective recordings of these two versions is a must, and the instrumental performances in both of these do not by any means pale beside what we're listening to here.
Rameau parmi les grands Allemands et Italiens, Heureusement que nous avons eu J.Philippe, nous serions bien seuls sans lui ! C'est superbe, allègre, réjouissant d'écouter cela ! A quand une belle vidéo HD avec JP Rameau ?
Superb music from French Maestro Rameau I love JP’s music always a delight mix of beautiful tunes and fun to listen to. Love this?❤

My favourite Rameau composition 🥰

I agree I have many Bill Christie’s opera sets which I love I also like to hear the suites of Rameau’s great music.
Imponente. Magistral. Colosal. Exhuberante. Desbordante. Barroco.
amo el barroco y Rameau. concuerdo con tu comentario
