RISM D1832. <br /> <br /> Issé in a prologue and three acts by Destouches to a libretto by Antoine Houdar de Lamotte received its first concert performances at Fontainebleau on 7 October 1697 and at Versailles at the Trianon on 17 December 1697; its first stage performance was in Paris at the Opéra on 30 December 1697.<br /> <br /> The work "was an immediate success and Destouches's future was secured. Louis XIV gave him 200 louis with the comment that 'since Lully no music had given him so much pleasure' Titon du Tillet. . Destouches and his librettists dealt with the conventional genres of their time in an original manner. Issé is a pastorale but has heroic characters; Le Carnaval et la Folie is one of the first examples of a lyric comedy in France; Les élémens an opéra-ballet is clearly a prototype for the later ballet-héroïque; and Les stratagèmes de l'Amour is perhaps the only ballet-héroïque with a comic intrigue although we are assured that it is a 'noble Comedy and one that has the character of Antiquity' libretto." James R. Anthony in Grove Music Online<br /> <br /> A "remarkable figure in French musical life during the first half of the 18th century. Destouches was of aristocratic stock entitling him to entrée in circles usually closed to musicians. As a boy he was educated by the Jesuits and under their protection traveled to Siam 1687-8. Before becoming known as a composer and gaining acclaim as a musical administrator Destouches served in the king's musketeers. He left the army in 1694 to pursue a career in music studying for a time with Campra. He collaborated with his cousin the librettist Antoine Houdar de la Mott on a series of tragedies of which the pastorale-héroïque Issé 1697 and Omphale 1701 were particularly successful. When the directorship of the Académie Royale de Musique became vacant in 1712 Destouches served in the interim before being appointed inspecteur gènsmallèral in 1713. In 1728 he was finally made director." Sadie: Companion to Baroque Music p. 117.

‎Oeuvres de theatre‎

‎à Paris: Chez Prault père 1736. Fine. Chez Prault père à Paris 1736 9.50 x 17 cm relié Publisher's composite collection the title pages of the various pieces spanning from 1734 to 1742; the fourth volume being dated 1745. It should be noted that the first piece of the first volume comes after the general title page without a particular title page with no apparent lack in the collation; the same applies to volume II the first piece being preceded only by a half-title while all other pieces have a particular title page this without any lack in the pagination and collation. The publisher added in each volume a leaf listing the titles of the various pieces contained in each volume. These particularities are inherent to the process employed by the publisher to form this collection of 16 pieces. Contemporary marbled full calf binding. Smooth decorated spine. Title-label and volume label in red morocco. Triple fillet frame on covers. Headcap of volume I worn. Restoration at foot of volume II. Small lacks to upper joints of volumes I II and IV. Scuffing on covers. Some corners slightly bumped. Paper more fragile on the first leaves of volume IV. Destouches' plays had undeniable success in their time some were immediately adopted by the Académie française. Destouches forms a figure of early eighteenth-century theater. Here is what Voltaire writes of him in ""Le siècle de Louis XIV"": ""One does not find in his plays the strength and gaiety of Regnard still less those depictions of the human heart that naturalness that true wit that excellent comedy which makes the merit of the inimitable Molière; but he has not failed to make a reputation after them. He has some plays that have been successful although the comedy in them is somewhat forced. He has at least avoided the genre of comedy that is merely languid of that kind of bourgeois tragedy which is neither tragic nor comic a monster born of the impotence of authors and the satiety of the public after the golden days of the century of Louis XIV. His comedy Le Glorieux is his best work and will probably remain in the theater although the character of Le Glorieux is it is said flawed; but the other characters appear to be treated superbly."" The fourth volume published in 1745 contains the entrance speech to the Académie française and Fontenelle's response. Chez Prault père unknown‎
