Excerpt: Les plaisirs de Versailles (1682)Actéon (1683-5)Les arts florissants (1685-6)La descente d'Orphée aux enfers (1686-7)David et Jonathas (1688)Médée (1693) Médée is a tragédie mise en musique in five acts and a prologue by Marc-Antoine Charpentier to a French libretto by Thomas Corneille. It was premiered in Paris on December 4, 1693. Médée is the only opera Charpentier wrote for the Académie Royale de Musique. The opera was well reviewed by contemporary critics and commentators, including Sébastien de Brossard and Évrard Titon du Tillet, as well as Louis XIV whose brother attended several performances, as did his son; however, the opera only ran until March 15, 1694, although it was later revived at Lille. A celebration of the glory of King Louis XIV. Jason and Médée (Medea), pursued by the people of Thessaly because of Médée's crimes, have sought refuge in Corinth. Médée is worried that Jason is growing distant from her. Jason claims he needs to win the good graces of the princess Créuse so her doting father, King Créon, will protect them. He suggests that Médée should give Créuse a beautiful robe as a present. After Médée leaves, Jason confides that he is really in love with Créuse but fears Médée's reaction. Créuse is due to be married to Oronte, prince of Argos, who now arrives in Corinth with his army. However, King Créon tells Jason that he would prefer him as a son-in-law. Jason leads the combined Corinthian and Argive army to victory against the Thessalians. Créon tells Médée he will not hand her over to her enemies but she must leave Corinth. Jason and his children by her will st...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=5842770 ... Read more

Extrait : Jean-Baptiste Lully, né Giovanni Battista Lulli à Florence le 28 novembre 1632 et mort à Paris le 22 mars 1687, est un compositeur italien puis français de la période baroque, surintendant de la musique de Louis XIV. Par ses dons de musicien et d'organisateur aussi bien que de courtisan et d'intrigant, Lully domina l'ensemble de la vie musicale en France à l'époque du Roi-Soleil. Il fut à l'origine de plusieurs formes de musique qu'il organisa ou conçut : la tragédie lyrique, le grand motet, l'ouverture à la française. Son influence sur toute la musique européenne de son époque fut grande, et nombreux parmi les plus doués (Henry Purcell, Georg Friedrich Haendel, Johann Sebastian Bach, Jean-Philippe Rameau) lui sont redevables à un titre ou un autre. Fils de Lorenzo di Maldo Lulli (meunier) et de Catarina del Sera (fille de meunier), il est remarqué vers 1645 par Roger de Lorraine (1624-1653), chevalier de Malte. Arrivé en France l'année suivante, il entre comme garçon de chambre au service de la Duchesse de Montpensier (la Grande Mademoiselle), qui désirait parfaire ses connaissances de la langue italienne. À l'âge de treize ans, manifestant de sérieuses dispositions pour la musique, il apprit le violon, la guitare, le clavecin, se montra excellent danseur et rejoignit la Grande Bande des Violons du Roi, composée de 24 instruments. En 1653, Lully dansa avec le roi dans le Ballet de la Nuit. Il obtint rapidement la direction d'un nouvel ensemble : La Bande des Petits Violons. Parfait courtisan et homme d'affaires habile, il devint vite le premier compositeur de la cour, ...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more
