Catalogue Note
Les surprises de l'amour de Rameau furent représentées pour la premières fois en 1748, avec Madame de Pompadour dans les rôles d'Uranie et de Vénus ; cependant, l'oeuvre ne fut publiée qu'après une nouvelle représentation le 31 Mai 1757. Le 12 juillet, l'entrée 'Les Sibarites' remplaça 'La Lyre enchantée' (voir The New Grove Dictionary of Opera, iv, page 606). Le présent volume contient des éditions séparées des ballets, qui sont d'après TNG, xx, page 800, les mêmes que la première édition complète, publiée vers 1757.
