Phaëton de Lully interprété par Les Talens Lyriques
08/03/2013 from 19:00 to 00:00
French ensemble Les Talens Lyriques, under the directorship of Christophe Rousset present the UK premiere of Lully’s Phaëton on 8 March at 7.00 at the Barbican Centre.
Lully's Phaëton
Lully composed Phaëton when he was fifty years old, at the height of his fame and the peak of his abilities. He was commissioned by Louis XIV (the Sun King) to establish French Opera at the Palace of Versailles and this allegorical tale of the upstart hero Phaëton enjoyed great success at its premiere in January 1683, with following performances including the first opera to be performed in Avignon (1687), at the original Opéra de Lyon (1688) and Rouen (1689). Originally conceived as a theatre work, Phaëton is characterised by the variety of its musical language, splendid choral passages, and increasingly colourful orchestral writing.
