Since its premiere in 1735, Jean-Philippe Rameau's opera Castor et Pollux has sparked a wave of enthusiasm. To this day, this masterpiece of French Baroque music is performed worldwide. Rameau's librettist, Pierre Joseph Bernard, drew on the mythological story of the twin brothers Castor and Pollux but took creative liberties with the material.
