The historical importance of composer Jean-Baptiste Lully has long
been recognised. Regarded as the founder of French opera, as the
embodiment of Baroque musical style and a key figure in the
development of court ballet, his work enjoys popularity and
scholarly interest. This volume presents the best research on
Lully's life, his work and his influence. Eleven essays by American
and European scholars address a wide range of topics including
Lully's genealogy, the Tragedie Lyrique, Lully's Palais Royal
theatre, the collaboration with Moliere, the transmission of
Lully's work away from the Ile-de-France, and an unexplored link
with Marcel Proust. Illustrated with musical examples and
photographs, the volume also contains surprising archival
discoveries about the composer's early life in Tuscany and new
information about his manuscript sources. It will interest all
those involved in the music of Lully and his time, whether
musicologists, historians, performers or listeners.
