Lully – Armide

Armide was the last lyric tragedy by Lully and Quinault: without doubt Quinault’s most eloquent dramatic achievement, and the culmination of the project for a tragedy in music carried forward by Lully, who died the year after its creation. Never has the language of Lully’s music sounded so beautiful and tragic, and the drama of the Christian knight falling in love with the sorceress who refuses to kill him was so strongly felt that it held the stage for a century! Here, Vincent Dumestre passionately conducts Lully’s latest masterpiece, whose eponymous character, played by the immense Stéphanie d’Oustrac, never ceases to bewitch us.
