Christophe RoussetAbout
The story of Pygmalion dates back to Greek and Roman mythology: the sculptor of the title forswears marriage, but then falls in love with his own perfect representation of a woman, beseeching Aphrodite (or Venus) to bring her to life. In Rameau’s hands, the story became a sunny romantic comedy and one of his best-loved works. Like Ovid’s Love, Christophe Rousset gives life to this score and leads a new and essential reading.
