Jean-Philippe Rameau “Platee.“ Жан-Филипп Рамо - “Платея“

Platée (Plataea) is an opera in a prologue and three acts by Rameau with a libretto by Adrien-Joseph Le Valois d’Orville. Rameau bought the rights to the libretto Platée ou Junon Jalouse (Plataea, or Juno Jealous) by Jacques Autreau (1657–1745) and had d’Orville modify it. The ultimate source of the story is a myth related by the Greek writer Pausanias in his Guide to Greece. /to compare
