"Iphigénie en Tauride was given on May 18 1778 with excellent singers; Rosalie Lavasseur sang Iphigénie Larrivée Oreste Legros Pylade and Moreau Thoas . The opera had a great success immediately and even Grimm wrote of it - I do not know whether this is melody but perhaps it is something better. When I hear Iphigénie I forget I am at the opera; I seem to be listening to a Greek tragedy with music by Lekain and Mlle Clarion. It was the crowning point of Gluck's career. Guillard had provided an excellent libretto more classical than Goethe's poem less Christian and more ruthless; and Gluck had seized on the contrast between Scythians and Greeks upon the perfectly dramatic figures of Iphigenia and Orestes and had produced a work which both re-created a part of Greek tragedy and at the same time foretold a new world."

Overall fine. 13.5 x 10 inches 34.3 x 25.3 cm. Hirsch IV 877. WorldCat records only three copies. Mozart's Requiem remains one of his best-loved works not little because of the mythology surrounding it. Mozart left it unfinished when he died in December 1791. The completion by Franz Xaver Süßmayr made in order to fulfill the Count von Walsegg's commission of the piece is still generally the completion performed today although several modern musicologists have offered alternative completions. The first French performance took place in Paris in 1804 with the present title page giving the date of 30 Frimaire An 13 in the French Revolutionary calendar. Gluck's De Profundis is a short setting of Psalm 130 for SATB choir and small orchestra with an unusual and low instrumentation oboe viola horn three trombones cello and continuo. The work was first performed at Gluck's own funeral in November 1787 conducted by none other than Antonio Salieri. The use of trombones with the associations of death and the afterlife make it a fitting pairing with Mozart's Requiem. A L'Imprimerie du Conservatoire Faubourg Poissonniere No. 152 hardcover books

2021réf. 1633EXCEPTIONALLY SCARCE SIGNED! FIRST EDITION THUS first printing. Full number line present. Book is brand new and unread. Personally hand signed by Nobel Prize winning poet Louise Gluck directly to bespoke bookplate which is laid in rather than affixed. NOT inscribed to anyone. Dust jacket hand covered in protective archival grade Mylar for many worry free years of reading/collecting! It is the astonishment of Louise Glück's poetry that it resists collection. With each successive book her drive to leave behind what came before has grown more fierce the force of her gaze fixed on what has yet to be imagined. She invented a form to accommodate this need the book-length sequence of poems like a landscape seen from above a novel with lacunae opening onto the unspeakable. The reiterated yet endlessly transfigured elements in this landscape―Persephone a copper beech a mother and father and sister a garden a husband and son a horse a dog a field on fire a mountain―persistently emerge and reappear with the dark energy of the inevitable shot through with the bright aspect of things new-made. From the outset "Come here / Come here little one" Gluck's voice has addressed us with deceptive simplicity the poems in lines so clear we "do not see the intervening fathoms." From within the earth's bitter disgrace coldness and barrenness my friend the moon rises: she is beautiful tonight but when is she not beautiful To read these books together is to understand the governing paradox of a life lived in the body and of the work wrested from it the one fated to die and the other to endure.
