He replaced Jean-Baptiste Lully as the dominant composer of French opera and he is also considered the leading French author of music for the harpsichord of his time alongside François Couperin Little is known about Rameau's early years, and it was not until the 1720s that he won fame as a major theorist of music with his Treatise on Harmony (1722). He was almost fifty before he embarked on the operatic career on which his reputation chiefly rests. His debut Hippolyte et Aricie (1733) caused a great stir and was fiercely attacked for its revolutionary use of harmony by the supporters of Lully's style of music. Nevertheless, Rameau's pre-eminence in the field of French opera was soon acknowledged and he was later attacked as an "establishment" composer by those who favoured Italian opera during the controversy known as the Querelle des Bouffons in the 1750s. Rameau's music had gone out of fashion by the end of the 18th century and it was not until the 20th that serious efforts were made to revive it. Today he enjoys renewed appreciation with performances and recordings of his music ever more frequent.

R Rameau was the leading French composer of his time, in particular after the death of Couperin in 1733. He made a significant and lasting contribution to musical theory. Born in Dijon, two years before the year of birth of Handel, Bach and Domenico Scarlatti, Rameau spent the earlier part of his career principally as organist at Clermont Cathedral. In 1722 or 1723, however, he settled in Paris, publishing further collections of harpsichord pieces and his important Treatise on Harmony, written before his removal to Paris. From 1733 he devoted himself largely to the composition of opera and to his work as a theorist, the first under the patronage of a rich amateur, in whose house he had an apartment. Keyboard Music Sixty of Rameau's 65 harpsichord pieces were written by 1728, with a final group appearing in 1741. Published in 1706, 1724 and around the year 1728, these collections, with the final collection of 1741, consist of genre pieces and dances, in the established tradition of French composers for the keyboard.

    Extractions: BAROQUE COMPOSERS AND MUSICIANS Jean-Philippe Rameau Born in Dijon in 1683, he spent the first 40 years of his life in the relative obscurity of the provinces. He made a short but important trip to Milan, and was for a time a violinist in the Lyons Opera. He held organ posts in Avignon, Clermont (1715-22) and Dijon and visited Paris from 1706 until 1709 - during which time he held two organ posts, was offered a third, and published his first book of harpsichord pieces. About 1713 he moved to Lyons, where he contributed grands motets to the Lyons Concert In 1722 he settled permanently in Paris. With the publication that year of his he gained the immediate attention and respect of Parisian musicians. But while his music - harpsichord pieces, cantatas and music for the theaters - was also much admired, he was unable to win an organ post in Paris. He took on pupils, among them the talented Marie-Louise Mangeot, who became his wife in 1726. Following the appearance of his third book of harpsichord pieces, which like his second (1724) was largely devoted to , he published his Observations sur la methode d'accompagnement pour le clavecin in the Mercure de France (February 1730), drawing upon his own brilliant technique of improvising on a figured bass. In 1727 he competed unsuccessfully with Daquin for the organ post at St Paul, bringing to a close his career as a church organist. By then he had published his second and more controversial harmony treatise

His Traité de l'harmonie (1722) laid the foundation for a rational science of music, and his concept of the invertibility of triadsa stroke of genius by any measurehad great consequences for the teaching of theory. At first not received well in France, Rameau's ideas were introduced into Germany by Marpurg . Rameau was a first-rate composer as well as theorist, composing mainly operas but also sacred, harpsichord, and chamber works . In the "War of the Buffoons" of 1752 Rameau was a defender of the French opera style of Lully and Destouches as opposed to the opera buffa of Pergolesi . In later years, however, Rameau said that if he had it to do over again he would have gone to Italy and studied with Pergolesi.

    Extractions: A sked to identify the greatest composer in Germany during the first half of the 18th century, most people would name Bach. When asked who was the greatest composer in England then, the response would be Handel. But the intellectual and artistic center of Europe during that period was neither Germany nor England, but France. Naturally, the land shone upon by the Sun King and his successor also boasted an outstanding composer, but one who for various reasons has remained in the shadows until the middle of our own century. Jean-Philippe Rameau enjoyed a spot in the sun only toward the end of his life. He wrote most of his finest music between the ages of 50 and 56. Until he reached middle age, and for nearly two centuries after his death, Rameau was just another name in the deep musicological murk. Born in Dijon in 1683, Rameau remained a non-entity until he was 40, when he wrote a still-famous treatise on harmony. Then, aspiring to write operas for Paris production, he had to shake the theorist image. Nobody thought a person who wrote about such arcane things as root-position chords and their inversions could also create pleasant music. So he began publishing a series of delightful harpsichord works, full of dance movements and pieces inspired by animals and personalities of the day. Then in 1733 came the 50-year-old Rameau's big break - an opportunity to write operas, the best way for a French composer to make his name at that time.
