  • Piano Music - Jean-Philippe Rameau

    Jean-Philippe Rameau


    1683 - 1764
    Jean-Philippe Rameau was a French composer and music theorist of the 18th century.


    📖 "The expression of thought, of sentiment, of the passions, must be the true aim of music."


    📖 "Nature endows us with the feeling that moves us in all our musical experiences; we might call her gift instinct."


    📖 "I try to conceal art with art."


    📖 "We must have recourse to the rules of music when our genius and our ear seem to deny what we are seeking."


    📖 "Music is a science which should have definite rules; these rules should be drawn from an evident principle; and this principle cannot really be known to us without the aid of mathematics."
    Jean-Philippe Rameau (1971). “Traite de l'harmonie reduites a ses principes naturels”, p.35


    📖 "Rhythm and sounds are born with syllables."


    📖 "When reason and instinct are reconciled, there will be no higher appeal."


    📖 "Emphasis on the common emotive or affective origins of music and words in the first cries of humankind undermines words."


    📖 "Verse, singing, and speech have a common origin."

    Richard Wagner

    In 1879, the French composer Emmanuel Chabrier requested leave from his job at the French Ministry of the Interior so that he could travel to Munich, which was the only place in the world to hear Wagner’s opera Tristan und Isolde. He was so taken with Wagner that he resigned his position in the Ministry the next year to become a full-time composer. He then became the assistant to the conductor Charles Lamoureux, helping him put on concert performances of Tristan in Paris in 1884 (Act I) and 1885 (Act II).

    Chabrier’ Souvenirs de Munich takes the themes of this serious opera of illicit love and betrayal and makes it into a Quadrille. The quadrille was a simple dance for 4 couples in a square in a set of 5 dances:

    1. Le Pantalon(“Trousers”)
    2. L’été(“Summer”)
    3. La Poule(The Hen”)
    4. La Pastourelle(“The Shepherd Girl”)
    5. Finale

    Édouard Manet: Emmanuel Chabrier (1880) (Ordrupgaard Museum, Charlottenlund, Denmark)

    And so Chabrier did the same thing: his Pantalonuses themes from Act I where the sailors greet King Marke. Etétakes its material from Act II using these themes of Ecstasy, Love call, and the Love song. Poulecontrasts the shepherd’s joyful tune from Act II with the Liebestod of Act II (lis
