| |||||
| If Hippolyte et Aricie signed the death warrant of the Lullian tragédie lyrique, on 24 October 1737 Castor et Pollux inaugurated a new era in the French opera. A veritable manifesto of the Ramellian aesthetic, this production naturally caused a scandal, but was to have an enduring, indeed a legendary, future. William Christie's performance with Les Arts Florissants reveals its orchestral and structural daring and restores Castor et Pollux to the place it deserves in the discography of Baroque opera. | |||||
