And why not? All of Platée (or almost all of it), transcribed for two harpsichords in the tradition of eighteenth-century salons. With its burlesque spirit, inventiveness and rich musical language, Rameau’s brilliant comédie-ballet offers Lucie Chabard and Baptiste Guittet a magnificent playground for transposing Baroque affects, from joy to despair, humour to madness, using the thousand colours of their instruments. The baroque setting of the Chapelle des Visitandines will be the natural setting for this ‘brilliant concert’!
