Jean-Philippe Rameau, Castor et Pollux (1737), Act I sc. 3: Telaire's air Tristes apprets, pales flambeaux, in E-flat (Rameau's key), string quartet. Take 2, rebuilt from Rameau's own orchestral score (Durand Oeuvres completes vol. VIII, 1903, IMSLP 25907, pp. 73-76), read staff by staff, so every note is Rameau's: Vln I sings Telaire's line (the violins in the ritornello); Vln II plays the violins' held line under her; the viola plays the bassoons' rest-up-up-up figure (and Rameau's viola where the bassoons rest); the cello plays the basse continue as written. Take 1 came from a voice-and-piano reduction and had invented inner notes. Form as the edition: ritournelle, the air to Fin, the second part, da capo to Fin (80 bars). Tres lent, quarter = 42. Arranged by Claude (Anthropic AI), 2026.
