Castor & Pollux

Music by Jean-Philippe Rameau

Libretto by Pierre-Joseph Bernard

Venue

City Recital Hall, Sydney

Sung in French

Returning triumphantly to one of our favourite composers - Jean Philippe Rameau - Pinchgut took on Castor & Pollux.

Regarded as his crowning achievement, we chose the second version - the 1754 edition with its more daring orchestration and greater concentration on the characters of Castor and Pollux.

With some of the most beautiful music ever written - try not crying in Télaïre's heart-stoppingly beautiful aria Tristes apprêtes - this is truly one of Rameau's greatest work.
