The 1737 version of Jean-Philippe Rameau’s opera “Castor et Pollux” overflows with a cornucopia of ideas in both plot and music. The reconstructed opera is now available in the Complete Edition.

Jean-Philippe Rameau’s “La Naissance d’Osiris” was performed just twice in the year 1754. Now this short work, with its highly attractive music, can be performed again in the version of the first performance.

Franz Schubert’s stage works have never become firmly established in the repertoire. And yet they contain interesting examples of Romantic opera aesthetics. And with the 2028 Schubert anniversary year in mind, they offer a variety of opportunities for productions.

A strong plot, and fabulously imaginative music: but until now Handel’s “Giustino” has not been one of his most frequently-performed operas. With the new edition this could all change.

“Siroe” was not one of the great successes of Handel’s London period. But the opera, with its captivating music, is well worth a rediscovery. The authoritative edition from the Complete Edition offers the basis for this.

Should an unfinished Rameau opera be reconstructed or left to languish in the dust of libraries? Of course “Io” had to be made performable on the stage! And a performance has now taken place.

Mozart’s “La clemenza di Tito” is very well-known. But Gluck’s setting of the same libretto by Pietro Metastasio with “music of a completely different style, never heard before” offers a good alternative.The opra remained unperformed for over 200 years, even though the libretto was always known through Mozart’s famous work. It was only revived in 1987 in Metz under Jean-Claude Malgoire. Cecilia Bartoli thrilled audiences with this music in 2001 when she recorded a CD with Gluck arias, including several from “La clemenza di Tito.”
