Les Boréades 3CD

Collegium 1704, Václav Luks - dir.

Posthumous work of Jean-Philippe Rameau
(1683?1764).

Rameau's career was coming to an end when in 1763
rehearsals began for his last work, Les Boréades,
intended for the Fetes Royales de Choisy in June,
celebrating the end of the Seven Years' War. On 27
April the rehearsals took place in Versailles,
then? nothing more. Les Boréades was not part of
the royal festivities, and the composer's death in
1764 plunged his last tragédie-lyrique into
oblivion, and it was not to see the light of day
for another two centuries! Yet what a splendid
opera it is, Rameau's most accomplished, for he
was in full possession of his creative means at
eighty years of age. The writing for orchestra and
choir is wildly virtuosic, the melodic invention
is exceptional, the drama is powerful: it is a
veritable musical testament, a succession of
violent elements, passionate duets and
heartrending lamentations. Taking on this monument
of French music, Václav Luks brings together
magnificent soloists and his choral and orchestral
forces, which regularly resound in the Royal
Opera: their determination is admirable and
Versailles really does owe it to Rameau, since the
unfinished rehearsals of 1763, to make a second
recording of his masterpiece!

Recorded from January 23 to 25, 2020 at the Royal
Opera of Versailles.
