BBC Radio 3

Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764)
' It is desirable that there should be found for the stage a musician who has studied Nature before painting her and who, through his learning, knows how to choose colours and shades which his mind and taste make him associate with the required expressions.'
(RAIIEAU)
