Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764) was a composer and performer of operas, keyboard works and chamber music, but also a sophisticated theorist and teacher. This reference work, by a leading authority on French Baroque music, reflects the full range of those activities. The book begins with a short biography drawing attention to significant patterns in his life and work; the rest of the volume forms a Rameau dictionary with entries on people, places, instruments and institutions as well as the composers own works.

Review:
A work for the specialist library, performer and musicologist. REFERENCE REVIEWS

The greatest strength of this compilation is its author's stunning expertise, evident on every page. EARLY MUSIC REVIEW

[T]his volume can be highly recommended to anyone interested in French baroque music in general and Rameau in particular. THE CONSORT

Second in the promising "Boydell Composer Compendium Series," . . . Sadler's work is passionately and exhaustively researched, elegantly organized, and gracefully documented. Sadler (emer., Univ. of Hull, UK) has published on Rameau for 40 years, and for this volume's central dictionary and its surrounding biography, works list, and bibliography he has selected and woven together details to produce a work that is brilliant and beautiful. . . . [E]xcellent as both resource and model. CHOICE

Indispensable for anyone wanting to quickly discover useful facts and scholarly information about every conceivable Ramellian subject . . . The compendium is a monumental dissemination of scholarship transformed into an engaging and user-friendly handbook, and hopefully it can reignite interest in a broader revival of Rameau's music.
