Original tekst

Zaïs was Rameau’s first opera which was entirely devoted to “la féerie”, the enchanted world of myth from the Middle East with its spirits and fantastic creatures. It was first performed on 29 February 1748 at the Paris Opera and was much praised for its expressive power, elegance and variety of its music as well as for the charm of its ballet. Although the libretto by Louis de Cahusac was criticised, the delightful work proved very popular. it was revived in 1761 and 1769 and for more than two decades received over 100 performances. Like most of Rameau’s operas, “Zaïs” was extensively revised during the composer’s lifetime and afterwards. Revisions already began during the first rehearsals and continued until the first performance. The composer and the librettist Cahusac finally used the Easter period in 1748 to work on those revisions. as well as structural changes and musical substitutions, these included some substantial additions to vocal and instrumental movements. The version which was performed after Easter is more convincing, both musically and dramatically. In contrast, the revivals of 1761 and 1769 – the first after Cahusac’s death, the second after Rameau’s – contained drastic cuts including the entire prologue. For the new volume in the “Opera Omnia Rameau” the version from Easter 1748 has been chosen as the primary source. For performances, a choice can be made between this and the original version. a series of insertions links all the passages with another.

Oversættelse

Zaïs was Rameau’s first opera which was entirely devoted to “la féerie”, the enchanted world of myth from the Middle East with its spirits and fantastic creatures. Den blev først udført på feb 29, 1748 på Paris Opera og var meget rost for sin udtrykskraft, elegance og variation af sin musik samt for charmen af ​​sin ballet. Selvom libretto af Louis de Cahusac blev kritiseret, den dejlige arbejde vist sig meget populær. det blev genoplivet i 1761 og 1769, og i mere end to årtier modtaget over 100 forestillinger. Ligesom de fleste af Rameaus operaer, "Zaïs" blev grundigt revideret i komponistens levetid og bagefter. Revisioner allerede begyndte i de første prøver og fortsatte indtil uropførelsen. Komponisten og librettist Cahusac endelig brugt påske periode i 1748 at arbejde på disse revisioner. samt strukturelle ændringer og musikalske udskiftninger, disse medtaget nogle væsentlige tilføjelser til vokale og instrumentale bevægelser. Den version, der blev udført efter påske er mere overbevisende, både musikalsk og dramatisk. I modsætning hertil vækkelser i 1761 og 1769 - den første efter Cahusac død, det andet efter Rameaus - indeholdt drastiske nedskæringer herunder hele prolog. For den nye volumen i "Opera Omnia Rameau" den version fra påske 1748 er blevet valgt som den primære kilde. For forestillinger, kan foretages et valg mellem dette og den oprindelige version. en række indsættelser forbinder alle passagerne med en anden.
