Campra's Idomenee (based on the same story as Mozart's Idomeneo) was first staged in 1712. Campra significantly reworked the score for the 1731 revival, and it is this second version of the opera that is recorded here. The opera follows the traditional tragedie-lyrique pattern having five acts and a prologue. But under Campra's pen (I mean, quill), the formalities of the genre are transformed into a genuine drama. The comparison between the 1712 and 1731 versions of the opera confirms Campra's intention to produce an emotionally realistic drama: the second version eliminated several minor characters and streamlined the plot thus achieving a better dramatic effect. Even the prologue serves not as a usual pastoral panegyric, but as a symbolic root of the human drama that follows - in the prologue, the goddess of love, Venus plots with the god of winds, Eole, to send a terrible storm on the ships of Idomenee returning home to Crete from their Trojan victories. This storm was, of course, the cause of Idomenee's terrible vow - in return for safe passage, he vowed to sacrifice the first person he sees ashore. I don't mean to claim that Campra's Idomenee is a realistic drama in the modern sense of the word, but parts of it are quite gripping. For example, the meeting of Idomenee and his son Idamante (who happens to be the first person Idomenee sees upon his return) shows Campra's considerable skill in combining music and drama. As another example, Idomenee's aria "O Neptune, recoy nos voeux" (a plea for mercy), which is echoed by the somewhat distant chorus, is very effective in conveying the cursed man's loneliness. The singers are marvelous, especially haute-contre Jean-Paul Fouchecourt as Idamante and bass Bernard Deletre as Idomenee. In addition, Sandrine Piau makes a truly electric Electre!
