Métamorphoses de l'opéra français |

Les Métamorphoses de
l'opéra français,
since its emergence
in the XVIIth century, are numerous and varied.
Beyond the model established by Quinault and Lully which
remains a constant reference,
the creative forms explored by their followers have kept on
questioning and renewing
the dramaturgical balance between the elements of the lyrical
drama.
Art of
synthesis, French opera can not been looked at from single point
of view.
Therefore, the members of the Groupe de recherche of Académie
Desprez
question the works in their literary, musical and stage elements.
Until the
French Revolution, the French model, through its successive
forms, has been influencing all Europe.
The diversity of its effects, in space and time, allows us to
understand better its essential components.
Initiated by an
investigation about the Théâtre des Enchantements,
the name that Cahusac gave to the "total theatre"
project that he developed with Rameau,
the programme « Les Métamorphoses de l'opéra français »
explores, questions
and aims at discovering the numerous aspects of French
aesthetics.
