Jean-Philippe Rameau: Les Indes Galantes Rct 44: Orchestra: ScoreBallet Héroïque In Einem Prolog und Vier Akten-The new scholarly-critical edition of the score of Rameau’s “ballet h ro que” Les Indes galantes finally clears up its convoluted source history. At the first performance on 23 August 1735 it consisted of a prologue and three acts: Le Turc g n reux Les Incas du P rou and Les Fleurs. But Les Fleurs already proved controversial in the early performances and from 11 September of that same year it was given a wholly new form. For the revival on 10 March 1736 Rameau and Fuzelier added an entirely new act Les Sauvages and in the years that followed the “ballet h ro que”was presented either complete (1743 1751 and 1761) or abridged with a prologue Les Incas du P rou and Les Sauvages (1751–73).With regard to the instrumental movements (dances and descriptive pieces) the present publication is based on the complete edition Opera Omnia Rameau (OOR) volumes IV/2 and IV/7 edited by Sylvie Bouissou. It includes not only the orchestral pieces in the version deemed valid by Rameau in 1736 (with version 2 of Les Fleurs and Les Sauvages) but also those from the first version of Les Fleurs (1735) as well as its 1743 and 1773 revisions. Performers are thus given a complete selection of all the orchestral numbers from one of Rameau’s central stage works for use also in concert performance.– Based on Opera Omnia Rameau (OOR) Series IV/2 and IV/7– Well-presented layout in a format of 23.7 x 33 cm
