The Overature to one of Rameau's most famous works. Here's a little music history for you.
"Dacier's examination of contemporary newsletters (nouvelles a la main) allows us to follow the shifting opinions almost day by day. There was a solid body of Rameau supporters - they were nicknamed "ramoneurs", a word which means "chimney-sweep" - determined to applaud the opera at all costs and turn its performance into a triumph. And there were the usual discontented reactionaries, with the old complaints of discordant harmony and no melody - the stock-in-trade of musical anti-modernists at all periods. The work was so stuffed with music, they declared, that for three whole hours no one in the orchestra had time even to sneeze."
