About this Event
The early music students at the Schulich School of Music are thrilled to present a student-led production that transports audiences to the golden age of French Baroque opera. Step back in time to the court of Versailles in 1745 with a fully staged performance of Les Fêtes de Ramire, a one-act opera by Jean-Philippe Rameau with a libretto by Voltaire. Set in medieval Spain, the story follows the captive princess Fatime—taken by the conquering Alphonse—and her rescue by Alphonse’s son, Prince Ramire. What follows is a lavish transformation: Fatime’s Pr*son becomes the scene of grand ceremonies, music, dance, and a triumphant celebration of love.
