I've clicked through so many videos, through so many incredible, weird ambient landscapes... I feel like I'm going on a train trip, seeing a succession of crazy, never-before-seen scenes from history, important, weird musics through the window as I pass... there's so much to explore. So many places to alight and dwell in the ambiences that are on offer. This stop, in particular, is brilliant
Remarquable Gardiner!! Il a été en fait un précurseur qui a cru dans le génie universel de Rameau, depuis les fêtes d'Hébé son superbe Hippolyte et Aricie pour exécuter en première mondiale Les Boréades. Le spectacle merveilleux qu'il nous donne est là pour prouver sa passion pour le maitre!! Car Jean-Philippe est en fait un Magicien des sons et des harmonies mais aussi des ballets donc de la danse... tout cela est intemporel.... Bravo john Eliot et merci pour cette exceptionnelle prestation!
I agree that this should be released on DVD. I would buy it in a heartbeat. But in the meantime, it's nice to have this TH-cam version (which I play endlessly), and I thank you very much for posting!
I've been looking for this for sooooooooo long! I listened to the performance live on the radio, and when I heard there was dance as well then I was wishing so hard seeing it all.
Merveilleuse sélection de Gardiner Il y a vraiment tous les extraits que je préfère chez Rameau. Tous les morceaux atypiques : L'air de la matelote d'Hyppolite et Aricie, le sublimissime menuet dans le goût de vielle de Platée, la contredanse finale des Boréades. Que des merveilles !
Fantastic !!!! Rameau made such exihilarating and moving music. He was one of the revolutionaries in music. It's a mind-boggling eye-opener to hear (and see) his music in this context. Wish i had been there. Must have been quite a night :-) Bravo to the good soul that uploaded this !
At this moment....this video seems like the best thing I've ever seen and heard!!! Rameau's music is full of richness and elegance. The orchestra and conductor are flawless; the dancers so graceful. And to top it off my South African compatriots are featured. Well done to Buskaid!!!
There are three outstanding documents of the rediscovery of Rameau's stage music - Nadia Boulanger's 1950 LP, Gardiners late 1970's Prom performance of Les Boreades, and this 2007 Prom, which must be one of the greatest of all Proms. At the moment, this is the only one freely available in any form. When you compare it with the currently available DVD of Les Paladins there's no doubt at all who gets their Rameau right and who has no idea how to. The BBC should get this on to DVD now.

He is certainly somewhat of a musical 'deity' to me... One of the great spirits of musical beauty and achievement, whose sound goes right to the heart and soul!
For me Rameau is the musical equivalent of a nymph king. Enchanting, ethereal, fleeting, and the embodiment of grace and beauty, as if the music is suspended in midair.
Love the part at the beginning of hour one. The part with the little boy in the middle of it is quite indicative of the world trying to work from home right now with cats, dogs and children in the middle of zoom meetings.
I find it fascinating how the rhythm and overall feel of both the traditional African dancing and the baroque French music go together so well. It just goes to prove how art is universal, and it serves the same purpose no matter when or where we are.
A great concert. Music of infinite grace and a divine beauty. It is music that charms the senses so that she seems to have been composed in the gods of Olympus. But it is Rameau, one of the gods who composed music.
None better in this music today...what a fabulous concert of Great music....under-appreciated from its time until about 50 years ago... Not a bad reason to be alive today ! P.S.- the sour notes referred to below on the French hoboy are meant to be-a Rameau equivalent of dissonance- inherent in the music for the story of Zais....
Allanfearn (below) is correct. This needs to be released on DVD. I watched this programme enraptured with the sheer beauty of Rameau's music as always (what a vital boundary-pusher he was!) and the inspired modern dance. I get quite dewy-eyed over the sequences from 18.00 and 57.55.
...and some people still think that classical music is boring ...viva Tudor, Daniele, Rameau and all those musicians who bring to us this giant of the music and alchemist of the human soul. Thanks!!!
A dança atrapalha a música, desconcentra...infelizmente, Não sei o que vocês acham sobre isso, e como era na época, né..mas a apresentação dos dançarinos ficou 'competindo' com algumas partes da música - a orquestra fica esquecida lá no fundo, tocando pro bailarinos dançarem....
John Eliot Gardiner, le plus français des britaniques ! Son amour de la musique française prend ici toute sa dimension avec ces airs du Grand Rameau dans une mise en scène que n'aurait pas renié Louis XIV.
John Eliot Gardiner, the most French of british people ! His love of French music takes on its full dimension with these tunes in the Great Rameau staging would not have denied that Louis XIV.
I love Baroque music and dance. It was so modern compared to formulaic Italian opera. The Paris National opera has a version of Rameau’s Les Sauvages that is insanely wonderful. It has millions of views. It’s pure joy. I hope Mostly Mozart does some Rameau new world type pop ups around Lincoln Center.
Las coreografias serían del momento o son actuales? Muy interesante, no conocía a este autor. Las melodías son hermosas, me trasladan a bellos jardines y pájaros por todos lados, las letras son hermosas y tranquilizadoras. Vaya autor, un placer conocerlo
I saw this for the first time when it was broadcast on British television. I tend to be immensely purist, (i'm getting on these days) but I watch this, and I am elated that the art of dance and Rameau's beautiful music can be combined with a modern homage to Baroque movement dance and it work so well. I must be mellowing. I do hope not. Here's something else I've observed. Imagine for one moment that Sir Jphn Elliot G, is not the conductor, but is brought on to the rostrum and told to dance to the music. I see him dancing only and I love what he does. And coincidentally, the orchestra follows him. Try it.
Rameau's compositions seem to be enjoying something of a revival. I would like to think that an increased popularity for Baroque music in general is part of a reaction to Jacobinism, that fanatical doctrine which has been responsible for untold misery down to the present day.
...And to think I am related to this genius Rameau. Was all his music composed for the "nobility"? I dislike the fact that this looks like a political show - it might not be but it looks like it. The music is great nonetheless.
Well this performance has certainly split opinions! Surely Rameau would have loved this display of esoteric wit in the dancers, and those in charge of Louis XV's court entertainments would have paid a premium for the African dancers - surely an exotic 18thC coup at Versailles! BTW GJ, were you at Cambridge between 1997-4? Apologies if I have the wrong gent.
Dance is a good and refrishing idea here,but accompanying movements may divert attention from the music and at last You do not know,whether success is written ti music or dancers' accomplishments.But today favorized accumulating experiences,next time perhaps everybody needs to see sights of naked women musicians
Les brillants défenseurs de la brillante musique française sont (aussi) anglais!! Gardiner, Christie....N'ont ils donc rien à défendre de l'autre côté du prude chanel?? Paradoxe ;-)
Bernard Beutter William Christie est très surestimé.Ses interprétations trop souvent manquent de dynamique sonore.Sans accents, elles se trainent et ennuient.
Chorégraphie complètement nulle, pourquoi enlaidir ainsi les femmes, très contentes de mettre des abominables pantalons? Ceci dit en prenant de la musique de Rameau, la beauté pour les oreilles est assuré, écouter en coupant l'image. Bravo les musiciens, on en redemande...
@@user-gy8zs3sv8y but it's perfectly possible to get into the score without dancers being involved, as you do every time you listen to a CD or whatever.

Merci !
Merci Sir John Eliot Gardiner de nous ouvrir les oreilles et les yeux mais aussi l'esprit avec la musique de Jean-Philippe Rameau...
I've clicked through so many videos, through so many incredible, weird ambient landscapes... I feel like I'm going on a train trip, seeing a succession of crazy, never-before-seen scenes from history, important, weird musics through the window as I pass... there's so much to explore. So many places to alight and dwell in the ambiences that are on offer. This stop, in particular, is brilliant
Remarquable Gardiner!! Il a été en fait un précurseur qui a cru dans le génie universel de Rameau, depuis les fêtes d'Hébé son superbe Hippolyte et Aricie pour exécuter en première mondiale Les Boréades. Le spectacle merveilleux qu'il nous donne est là pour prouver sa passion pour le maitre!! Car Jean-Philippe est en fait un Magicien des sons et des harmonies mais aussi des ballets donc de la danse... tout cela est intemporel.... Bravo john Eliot et merci pour cette exceptionnelle prestation!
La preuve que la musique de Rameau est non seulement intemporelle mais aussi sans frontière !!! Superbe !
I agree that this should be released on DVD. I would buy it in a heartbeat. But in the meantime, it's nice to have this TH-cam version (which I play endlessly), and I thank you very much for posting!
I agree with the Maestro. This is a miracle music, there's everything inside. Thanks so much Rameau and Gardiner.
It's impossible to express in words how great thou art, just close your eyes and enjoy their playing
How life can be put back into the marvelous music of Rameau!
Agree.
Magnificent seeing Rameau's dances being danced to! Awesome!
THE champion, the brightest star of Baroque music, God I adore his works !
I adore Rameau and also Domenico Scarlatti.
I've been looking for this for sooooooooo long! I listened to the performance live on the radio, and when I heard there was dance as well then I was wishing so hard seeing it all.
Allez la musique tres belle et les danses tres vif de Rameau et Lully! Wonderful music.Thanks & best wishes.
Merveilleuse sélection de Gardiner
Il y a vraiment tous les extraits que je préfère chez Rameau. Tous les morceaux atypiques :
L'air de la matelote d'Hyppolite et Aricie, le sublimissime menuet dans le goût de vielle de Platée, la contredanse finale des Boréades.

What a great show, what fabulous music. Rameau! Thanks for posting this great video.
What a fantastic performance of one of the most wonderful music of Rameau!
All the instrumentalists, singers, and dancers. A heavenly concert.
I usually surf a lot and not always wait for the end, but this one is worth listening to until the end....

Bel hommage de Gardiner à Rameau, bravo !
I really enjoyed the dances - having been a participant on Baroque dance courses I can relate to them immediately.
The dances are superb as are the dancers.
He is certainly somewhat of a musical 'deity' to me...
One of the great spirits of musical beauty and achievement, whose sound goes right to the heart and soul!
For me Rameau is the musical equivalent of a nymph king. Enchanting, ethereal, fleeting, and the embodiment of grace and beauty, as if the music is suspended in midair.

A great concert. Music of infinite grace and a divine beauty. It is music that charms the senses so that she seems to have been composed in the gods of Olympus. But it is Rameau, one of the gods who composed music.
Un Grand Monsieur , à qui on dit : " Mille mercis! "
Magical. I so loved this.
Rameau's music so beautifully performed by dancers and musicians. It inspires and gives meaning, purpose and joy to life.
Marvellous entertainment and such precision and polish
This is just fantastic!!!
Gardiner should come back to Rameau's operas, obviously; what he's doing sounds just like the way it should be done
Amazing, what a lovely performance!
What a beautiful piece of music at 13:12 with two wonderful soloists plus the choir .
None better in this music today...what a fabulous concert of Great music....under-appreciated from its time until about 50 years ago...
Not a bad reason to be alive today !
P.S.- the sour notes referred to below on the French hoboy are meant to be-a Rameau equivalent of dissonance- inherent in the music for the story of Zais....

The choreography doesn't add to it - the score is amazing enough
I take your point, but no harm in giving the eyes something to focus on.
