Nearly a century after it's composition, Lully's Persée was recreated in 1770 to mark an exceptional event: the inauguration of the Royal Opera House at Versailles Palace, built to celebrate the wedding of the Dauphin and Marie Antoinette. For this unique occasion, three composers (Antoine Dauvergne, Francois Rebel and Bernard de Bury) were commissioned to revise Lully's work and adapt it to the new circumstances and the new venue, which was regarded as absolutely extraordinary in it's time. Lovers of Lully's opera will therefore meet their mythological hero again, now with a richer orchestration and more for the chorus and the ballet dancers to do. There were only two performances in 1770, but they were absolutely sumptuous: 95 choristers, 15 soloists, 80 dancers, 100 extras, 80 instrumentalists, five sets and 350 costumes. Listeners can now re-live that historic event thanks to a recording conducted by the leading specialist in this repertory, Hervé Niquet.

my review: content and form
Hello readers
it is my pleasure to share my opinion on collected poems by wallace stevens and as any book consists of content and form there is no point telling my opinion on the poems as far as we head for objectivity while any one reads through preface and the introduction one should say that especially the introduction should have been extended and detailed more than this and more organized linking the categorized poems. as for the outlook of the book sure such distinctive and outstanding poet should deserve a better quality in both paper and printing.
Thanks to you all

Excellent comprehensive collection by a legendary poet
Format: Paperback
Wallace Stevens has long been one of my handful of favorite poets. An insurance man by day and an astute observer and deep thinker-philosopher in his spare time, he thrilled and pleased me with this wonderful collection. This volume is packed with insightful, imagery- and language-rich poems (many with sly humor) such as "The Snow Man," "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird," and "The Old Lutheran Bells at Home." Few poets today can wield such a rich vocabulary of idea, image, symbol, insight, and understated humor. I also like the simple but colorful cover design, the quality, texture, and subtle ivory shade of the pages, the print quality and binding (well glued, paperback). The book arrived on time and undamaged. It will grace my bookshelf for long years to come.

Wonderful Collection Showing a Kind of Poetic Mastery Unmatched, Unparalleled
Format: Kindle
The meditative quality, exquisite imagery and concise & precise use of language bolsters Wallace Stevens as one of the finest & greatest poets in 20th century. Wallace's control over English and more generally the poetic style itself are best represented in his group of poems The Man with the Blue Guitar. There are no self-indulgent, instinctive, overgrown lines seen in other poets' work such as Alan Ginsberg and Derek Walcott. And later generation of poets such as John Ashbery are greatly influenced by Wallace's work. This again indicates the immense value of this collection to global literature progression.

A great collection of poetry.
Format: Paperback
I first "discovered" Stevens from selections of some of his work being a part of this work on poetics I have. The quotes are, I suppose, for the oddity of discovering an artist that is more well known than I'll ever be. Great book to have if you're interested in how poetry made its move from constrained to open.

Stevens wrote, "She sang beyond the genius of the sea." He did the same.
Format: Kindle
Thank you to the publisher for an ebook copy of Stevens' work. My ancient paperback copy is now retired. As for the poetry: my respectful suggestion is to read it and not feel obliged to understand it. Reading a poem isn't a contest you have to win. Let the music of the words wash over you. Float. You don't have to bring anything to this party except your willingness to be surprised, the way you're sometimes surprised, on waking, by a dream you had. Happy reading, whatever you choose to read.
