Rameau: Platee ~ Agnew, Delunsch, Beuron, Naouri, Le Texier, Lamprecht, Minkowski, Paris Opera

This Paris Opera production of Rameau’s burlesque on the vicissitudes of love, is a "pure joy from start to splashing finish" (Wall Street Journal Europe). "Laurent Pelly’s staging of Platée is an exhilarating display of gags and West Side Story dance routines mixed in with satirical rap...Marc Minkowski conducting the excellent Musiciens du Louvre-Grenoble was the instigator of a sparkling orchestral fête" (Opera Now). "Véritable révélation musicale et dramaturgique, la production n’a rien perdu de son implacable cruauté, de son joyeux piquant ni de sa noirceur et de son ineffable pouvoir de nostalgie" (Le Monde).
