Presentation
Lyrical comedy in three acts on a libretto by Duplat de Monticourt created at the Théâtre du Palais-Royal in Paris in 1760.
Here is Rameau's forgotten lyrical comedy resurrected: in 1760, at the age of seventy-seven, Les Paladins was his last work to be presented to the public. Inspired by the triumph of his other comedy, Platée, Rameau gives it emphasis and excess, makes the orchestra gleam and the singers leap, with sharp turns in the comic tone, and magnificent sentimental pages.
In this Middle Ages fantasy, here is the comedy of characters brilliantly treated as caricatures: the beautiful Argie prisoner of the monstrous Orcan, the Paladin Atis freeing his bride, the Fairy Manto unleashing demons and furies, and transfiguring the castle with a dance of Pagodas and a Chinese entertainment!
Valentin Tournet brings his magnificent soloists and La Chapelle Harmonique to life in this latest Rameau jewel!
