Background: From the early overtures of the 1730s, including Hippolyte et Aricie and Les Indes galantes, through the 1740s, with Les Fêtes de Polymnie and Platée, culminating in the 'programme overtures' of the 1750s such as Zoroastre and Acante et Céphise, this recording showcases the increased use of imagination, freedom of form, and melodic independence that Rameau accomplishes during his compositional journey.
