Last night I watched a DVD of the opera Platée from a production originally staged in 2004. As always, the music by Rameau was superb, and the sets and costumes were also impressively imaginative. Most baroque opera has a weak storyline, at least by the standards the public came to expect from nineteenth and twentieth century plots in which adultery and death form the basis of interest. As usual, most of this one is just an excuse for wonderful music and outlandish theatrics. The story is even a little cruel and mean-spirited, and at least somewhat politically incorrect, with Jupiter, in a ploy to rid his wife, Junon, of jealousy over his amorous exploits, courting the vain but unsightly swamp-nymph Platée in a joke played at the expense of both of them.
Aux longueurs d'Apollon (from Platée) - Jean Philippe Rameau (1683-1764) ; Mireille Delunsch, soprano ; Orchestra and Chorus of Les Musiciens du Louvre, Grenoble directed by Marc Minkowski

From the comments:
"Lady Gaga can suck it"
"Sending it to everyone who might have thought that French baroque opera was dull."
"Great singing and conducting... and Mireille Delunsch is a wonderful comedienne. I love at 2:39 when she's looking at the music that's she's ripped from her dress and she realizes it's upside down and flips it over, singing the same note an octave lower as if she'd read it wrong - brilliant and clever staging!."
Amour, amour, lance tes traits (from Platée) - Jean Philippe Rameau (1683-1764) ; Mireille Delunsch, soprano ; Orchestra and Chorus of Les Musiciens du Louvre, Grenoble directed by Marc Minkowski

The controversy continues . . .
Science | Elite Violinists Fail to Distinguish Legendary Violins From Modern Fiddles
As both involve the senses and perception, this controversy reminds me of the inability of sommeliers and other critics to tell the difference between a very expensive high end wine and a bottle of plonk in double blind studies.

In a young elm's shade, Lisette
Sat quietly spinning flax.
Seeing her alone, her shepher
Came to her and tenderly he said:
Brunette, my love,
Am I to languish for ever?
If sometimes, as I play my musette,
I complain of your cruelty,
My complaints are lost on the wind:
For never have you listened.
Brunette, my love
Am I to languish for ever?
That day we danced in the village,
I went to give you my hand,
But in your face I saw
At once a grieved look.
Brunette, my love,
Am I to languish for ever?
When alone in our woods I sigh,
Aware of my bitter suffering,
Zephyr goes to tell Echo
And sighing, Echo repeats:
Brunette, my love,
Am I to languish for ever?
