Programme Note
This project is continuing the fruitful creative collaboration with The Opera Company that brought you the 2021 show 'Rameau's Roots and Mouret’s Madness' and 'Castor et Pollux' with the 'Rameau Project’ in 2022. Delving ever deeper into this fascinating time of drama, gesture and emotion in french music of the early 18th century. Guido Martin Brandis will stage the show revealing the two Cantatas as the miniature operas they are. With instrumental pieces linking the dramas we will take the audience from the pain of love and loss to the liberation of a shepherd’s faithful and simple love in Rameau’s ‘Berger Fidèle.
