I said the same thing recently, at age 70, and I studied music in college! For no known Earthly reason, I only this year bothered to listen. Now I'm in love!
Years ago some critic remarked that French music, like French wines, doesn't travel well. In my case, I blame my piano teacher. Lovely lady, good musician, but she'd had it pounded into her head that practically all great music had been written by Germans and Austrians between 1700 and 1900.
I have spent many tears on this recording, especially at 02:03 and again with the chorus, at 04:33 when Rameau confronts us with an appoggiatura, a 9th to gentle 10th on the IVth--heartbreaking.
Rameau absolutely captured the tenderness of love in this piece. I've listened to it live and on videos and it always brings me to tears. Well, I'm a hopeless romantic... 😢
And merci maestro William for your excellent choice of repertoire, and mille merci for decades of work with Les Arts Flo'. America's loss has been France's and Europe's gain.
J’aime bien que vous tutoyiez ce compositeur. C’est exceptionnel de lire ce que je fais aussi ! Après l’âge de faire la fête on a le panorama de la musique qui n’a pas de siècle. La musique géniale bien sûr !
I'm listening to this because I just discovered Nicolas Lebegue's massive Suite Du Premier Ton on Organ and it got me listening to French Baroque on UA-cam. This is a beautiful piece by Rameau, hardly a line can be drawn between Tendre Amour & Romantic Era music.
Extremely moving, it transports us to another dimension. How much I hope someone could present it to the new generations, they would love to experience this kind of beauty.
J’aimerais de mieux écrire français pour exprimer comme j’admire l’excelence, et la beauté de chaqu un des artistes, avec un mention special pour Monsieur le directeur d’orchestre, qui est incroyablement parfait.
Sure it is a prayer, for a world of peace, tenderness. I love this piece of music so much, I listen it very often, and this performance with William Christie is the best, he is such a nice man, he loves music so much and all members of the orchestra. Greetings from the Netherlands
Exquisite- beautiful- the Immortal music of Rameau translated and shaped into the realm of the purest beauty by the hands of the great William Christie- a sublime moment for us all- Thank you for this download Mr. Vidaurre!
La dirección de Monsieur Christie me asombra cada vez, imprime armonía, equilibrio, en otras palabras, perfección. Mi admiración a este genial director que hace posible que brillen todos y cada uno de los músicos y cantantes. Merci Monsieur Christie.
I've discovered Rameau recently ... and, In my opinion, the music is not the same now ...why? because Jean-Philippe has been able to show me why it's important music ... Music can guide you throught your doubts and become you happy on this way while you understands what is happening!!!
THis is a delicious moment in the "turkish" act "les fleurs" of "les Indes Galantes", which are a masterwork througout. The concuctor is perfect, the orchestra and the choirs are at their best.
Bravo! A night out in town, home to relax to the sounds of Rameau as per the direction of William Christie. Thank you for making my mortaility seem so relevant.
La meilleure interprétation de ce morceau que j'aie pu trouver: pour le velouté de la flûte qui se détache de l'orchestre et mise en valeur juste comme il faut, pour l'harmonie du choeur, le bon rythme, et l'attitude modeste de William Christie à la fin... :-)
This is actually the climax of the Persian-set one-act opera, Les Fleurs, which is part of Les Indes Galantes, probably the most often performed of Rameau's operas today.
Merci David ...impressionnante intrepretation, toute en nuances. Un moment de beauté et de douceur dans un monde de bruit pour ne pas dire de brutes. Très bonne année à vous et encore merci
Thank you for uploading this wonderful performance. Voices and orchestra so finely balanced ; the separate vocal lines so clear and distinct, yet so perfectly harmonised ; the elisions between phrases, and the dramatic pauses, so well judged. Brilliant.
Bonjour Piccoli, Je vous conseille de vous attarder sur les interprétations de ce chef d'orchestre éblouissant qui maitrise et restitue merveilleusement la musique baroque dans son jus d'origine. Notamment sur Rameau, Haendel dans lequel il excelle.
All these years and I had never heard of Rameau, where have I been?
I said the same thing recently, at age 70, and I studied music in college! For no known Earthly reason, I only this year bothered to listen. Now I'm in love!
I was luckier then , to find out about him at the age of 40 , while studying music history 🎵🥀🎶🌷🌹💚🧡
Ditto!! Wonderful and I too love his music!
In the wrong century!

William Christie never fails to delight. Where would Baroque music be without him and his impeccable taste ?
4:20 a tear runs down Christie's face. Everyone on that stage seems to feel the magic in the music...and we listeners feel it too.
I have spent many tears on this recording, especially at 02:03 and again with the chorus, at 04:33 when Rameau confronts us with an appoggiatura, a 9th to gentle 10th on the IVth--heartbreaking.

Hey Tony: Moves me to tears as well. You're not alone, Bro!!
Try to listen the scene of waking in his "Les Boreades".
Sir, bravo.
Merci Mr Christie de faire sonner notre Rameau de cette façon si délicate et tendre. Inoubliable
Merci David, Rameau, un monde de paix, d'amour, de tendresse dans ce monde de Covid 19, un moment de bonheur! Salutations des Pays Bas
And merci maestro William for your excellent choice of repertoire, and mille merci for decades of work with Les Arts Flo'. America's loss has been France's and Europe's gain.
Nous nous aimons, notre émotion ne nous perd pas, elle nous trouve. C'est ça Rameau.
Just about the most beautiful music ever written.
Rameau, Rameau Rameau, toi le génie encore trop méconnu, merci à jamais pour toute cette merveilleuse musique.
J’aime bien que vous tutoyiez ce compositeur. C’est exceptionnel de lire ce que je fais aussi ! Après l’âge de faire la fête on a le panorama de la musique qui n’a pas de siècle. La musique géniale bien sûr !
Une magnifique interprétation, toute en nuances, pleine de vie et de vérité.
Quelle belle musique, le paradis, le monde souffre du virus Covid 19, aussi dans mon pays les Pays Bas, je prie pour les malades. Tenez courage!
Merci, Merci!!!
Ah! Mr. Christie, you and your musicians melt my heart. Thank you !
I'm listening to this because I just discovered Nicolas Lebegue's massive Suite Du Premier Ton on Organ and it got me listening to French Baroque on UA-cam. This is a beautiful piece by Rameau, hardly a line can be drawn between Tendre Amour & Romantic Era music.
Quelle interprétation et quel chef ! William Christie en est émouvant dans sa direction...
This surely has to be one of the most beautiful pieces ever written? Rameau, what a genius!
Extremely moving, it transports us to another dimension. How much I hope someone could present it to the new generations, they would love to experience this kind of beauty.
You can see the emotion and joy of music in the performers. Long live Rameau !
Something to keep in my favorites for ever . Thank you for posting !
Comment ne pas être touché par autant de grâce. MERCI
Merci pour ce partage. Bravo à Mr Christie le regard les gestes et tout est dit. Bravo aussi aux chanteurs. Merci.
This is sublime! Have only now heard it! Incredible!
Eh oui, Rameau a été ignoré. Pour plein de raisons. Esthétiques, politiques. Comme Bach, Vivaldi. On découvre ! Merveille !
I recently discovered Rameau. It gives goosebumps every time I listen. Beautiful.
The wonderfulness of this performance is unrivaled
On a school trip to Paris in 1954 we were taken to the Paris Opera for a performance of Les Indes Galantes. Beautiful.
Jì'aime beaucoup Rameau et Les Arts Florissants. Donc merci pour cette merveille.
Oui, cette musique est merveilleuse, je l'ai adressée à celle que j'aime.
I'm speechless and crying..so beautiful

I t is a prayer. All musicians participating are so emotionally moved and so caught in this divine music
Sure it is a prayer, for a world of peace, tenderness. I love this piece of music so much, I listen it very often, and this performance with William Christie is the best, he is such a nice man, he loves music so much and all members of the orchestra. Greetings from the Netherlands

C'est comme une fontaine de sublime,j'en ai versé ma petite larme.
Que c'est beau!

This is the Persian act! ;-)
Such beauty, such joy. Bravo!
It is amazing, the music was written around 300 years ago (just think of that) and it is so wonderfully modern. Thanks for uploading.

Great music. Great faces. "Love is stronger than death".
A Baroque lover in Texas.
Welcome in our world! From France 🤗
Sehr berührend, sensibel und filigran. Besser kann man nicht komponieren, nicht spielen, nicht singen. Parfait!
Prachtig, met wat een delicatesse deze uitvoering,
La meilleure interprétation de ce morceau que j'aie pu trouver: pour le velouté de la flûte qui se détache de l'orchestre et mise en valeur juste comme il faut, pour l'harmonie du choeur, le bon rythme, et l'attitude modeste de William Christie à la fin... :-)
Tres belle prestation pour un tres beau morceau d un tres grand compositeur ....bravo
Sublime !!!! La France
Bellissima aria! Grazie!

Grazie Rameau per questo pezzo di Cielo.
I'm not French but such great music😉😊😙
Thank you for uploading this wonderful performance. Voices and orchestra so finely balanced ; the separate vocal lines so clear and distinct, yet so perfectly harmonised ; the elisions between phrases, and the dramatic pauses, so well judged. Brilliant.
Lovely rapport between conductor and orchestra
Rameau un genio della musica!!! ❤️
Rameau, Lully , Faure , all top favourites !!!
Quelle qualité des timbres et d'équilibre ! Magnifique !
