Wotquenne 47. BUC p. 386. RISM G2739 First performed in Paris at the Opéra on 24 September 1779. "Echo et Narcisse was a failure at its early performances largely because the audiences and critics expected high drama along the lines of Alceste Armide and Iphigénie en Tauride. But Echo et Narcisse is a different type of work; it belongs to the pastoral tradition still popular at this date and a genre to which Gluck frequently returned. Comparisons were and are still made with Gluck's more popular dramas because Echo et Narcisse contains numbers and scenes similar to those that had made greater impressions before. It is not a weak opera and there is much fine music in it ." Jeremy Hayes in Grove Music Online Gluck was a "Bohemian-Austrian composer of Italian and French opera a leading figure in opera of the second half of the 18th century and the person chiefly credited with the 'reform' of opera after the age of Metastasian opera seria. . Force of circumstance may have led Gluck to Paris to complete his operatic career but in artistic terms Paris can be seen as his inevitable final destination. His years of grounding in opéra comique and the ballet and via Traetta his response to the French tragédie lyrique tradition had already provided the impetus for his overhaul of the opera seria; now it was time to confront that tradition on its own territory. On more than one occasion indeed Gluck explicitly owned the French influence and its particular effect on his preparation for Paris. Between them the eight operas that he produced for the Académie Royale de Musique in Paris - the two Iphigénie operas; the radical revisions for Paris of the Vienna 'reform' operas Orfeo and Alceste; the similar revisions of the Vienna opéras comiques Cythère assiégée and L'arbre enchanté; Armide a new opera on a libretto that Quinault had written for Lully more than 90 years earlier; and the last opera Echo et Narcisse - are all different attempts at the confrontation and revival of that lyric tradition."

1774Best.-Nr. 40430Paris: Chez Mr. Lemarchand . A.P.D.R. 1774. Folio. Unbound. Sewn. 1f. recto title verso publisher's catalogue 1f. recto dedication verso "Argument" 52 pp. Engraved. Incomplete with only first act and three pages of second act present. Worn overall with occasional staining foxing and soiling throughout primarily to blank margins; title worn and heavily browned stained and soiled with paper loss to edges; corners slightly bumped and creased; signatures separated; binder's holes to blank inner margin. First Edition unrecorded variant. Wotquenne 41. Hopkinson p. 43 41A. BUC p. 386. Lesure p. 240. RISM G2582. First performed in Vienna at the Burgtheater on 5 October 1762 in Italian to a libretto by Ranieri de' Calzabigi and in Paris at the Opéra on 2 August 1774 in French to a libretto by Pierre Louis Moline after Calzabigi. "The classical orientation of Calzabigi evident in Orfeo ed Euridice from the moment the curtain rose on the almost archaeologically recreated ancient funerary ritual e.g. the threefold calling of the name of the deceased coloured the entirety of his collaboration with Gluck. Despite the ambiguous attributions of the prefaces signed by the composer it is clear that Gluck largely shared his librettist's classical enthusiasms . It is revealing that Gluck sought out subject matter from Greek tragedy independently of Calzabigi after the latter's departure from Vienna - most probably with his inner conviction mixing with a desire to exploit the goût grec then prevailing in France . Calzabigi's poetry was almost completely devoid of metaphors and similes and placed a mere three characters in a fluid context of dances and choruses or both simultaneously. The action was reduced to essentials: a demonstration of the persuasive powers of music and a cautionary tale on the dangers of curiosity with Orpheus bewailing the loss of his wife already as the curtain rose. Gluck's approach as composer was no less radical particularly in his near-complete elimination of coloratura and of opening ritornellos in the solo numbers. Above all the opera was remarkable in its emphasis on continuity which was achieved chiefly through the enchaining of harmonically open-ended sections of music and through the complete avoidance of recitativo semplice in favour of orchestrally accompanied recitatives so as to avoid sharp contrasts of texture with the set pieces. This continuity and the nearly syllabic vocal writing were calculated to prevent applause and thus also to promote the audience's absorption in the spectacle."

First performed in Vienna at the Burgtheater on 5 October 1762 in Italian to a libretto by Ranieri de' Calzabigi and in Paris at the Opéra on 2 August 1774 in French to a libretto by Pierre Louis Moline after Calzabigi. "More successfully than any of his contemporaries Gluck translated the widespread agitation for reform of opera and theatrical dance on the part of European intellectuals into actual works for the stage first in pantomime ballets and Italian serious operas for Vienna and then in operas of various sorts for Paris."

Later edition of the French version. Hopkinson 44C a. The French version of Alceste to a libretto by Marie François Louis Gand Leblanc Roullet was first performed at the Académie Royale de Musique in Paris on 23 April 1776. "Gluck's revision of Alceste for performance in Paris in 1776 amounts almost to a recomposition. His alterations were far more extensive than those he had made in his Paris adaptation of Orfeo . The French Alceste had a new text by Roullet Gluck's librettist for Iphigénie en Aulide based on Calzabigi's libretto; but alterations to the plot and the order of events led to major differences between the two. The principals at the première of the French version included Rosalie Levasseur Alcestis Joseph Legros Admetus Henri Larrivée Hercules Moreau Apollo and Nicolas Gélin High Priest. At the first Paris performances of Alceste the Act 3 denouement was substantially different from the version familiar today and closer to the Italian original. Gluck and Roullet after much criticism altered the act to incorporate a part for Hercules who has no place in the Italian original. Just as Gluck was arranging more music to enlarge the final divertissement again to please Parisian taste he heard of the death of his adopted daughter Marianne in Vienna; he left Paris and assigned the completion of the divertissement to Gossec. This revised version published in Paris in 1776 is the one that has nearly always been performed subsequently." Jeremy Hayes in Grove Music Online. N. Simrock [PN 1125.] unknown
