PHILÉMON ET BAUCIS Opéra en 2 ou 3 actes Composer: Charles Gounod Librettists: Jules Barbier & Michel Carré, after Jean de La Fontaine’s fable based on Ovid’s Metamorphoses First performance: Théâtre-Lyrique, Paris, 18 February 1860 PLOT: Philémon and Baucis are a devoted elderly couple who unknowingly entertain the gods Jupiter and Vulcan to dinner. Because they have shown hospitality and piety, the gods restore the couple’s youth. (The second act, omitted in the 1876 two-act revision, is a choral ballet showing an orgy in Jupiter’s temple; it ends with the outraged gods sending a flood to destroy the sinners.) In the final act, Jupiter tries to seduce the now youthful Baucis, but she resists. Moved by the couple’s pleas to be old again, he refuses to take back his gift, but blesses them and promises never to threaten their happiness. No. 7 – Quartettino: “Prenez place à la table” No. 8 – Final: “Allons! triste buveur” Philémon and Baucis prepare dinner for their guests, and learn to their surprise that they are gods. In return for their hospitality, the gods will make them young again and turn their home into a palace. Philémon and Baucis fall into a magical slumber. Philémon (tenor): Jean-Claude Orliac Baucis (soprano): Anne-Marie Rodde Jupiter (bass-baritone): Pierre Néquecaue Vulcain (bass): Felix Giband Conductor: Henri Gallois Orchestre Lyrique de l’O.R.T.F. Paris, 1975
