This re-release of orchestral suites from two stage works by Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764) marks the first occasion on which JEANNE LAMON, and the TAFELMUSIK ORCHESTRA, Toronto's award-winning period instrument orchestra, recorded music of the French baroque. The two suites featured on this CD are drawn from Rameau's epic five-act "tragedie en musique" Dardanus, and from the less familiar "opera-ballet" Le Temple de la Gloire.
