Catalogue Note
Rare. Nous avons retrouvé trace de seulement quatre exemplaires de cette rare édition à une vente aux enchères ces dernières vingt années. Il s'agit de la version revue de 1744 de la superbe Tragédie en musique de Rameau, dans laquelle les actes III et V ont été en grande partie réécrits.
Rare. We have traced only two copies of this rare edition at auction during the last twenty years.
