Adam (1803-1856)

Description:

French composer Adolphe Adam, known for his ballet "Giselle," was a talented composer who wrote 28 works of music for the stage in his 20s. The following year, in the aftermath of the 1848 Revolution, the theater was closed and saddled with enormous debts. In addition to "Giselle," Adan composed several other ballets. The Fairy's Maiden" is a ballet in three acts that premiered at the Opéra de Paris in 1849. The work depicts the love story of Isaulet, daughter of God, which takes place in the countryside, and the music throughout the work is so beautiful that it surpasses the masterpiece "Giselle. However, recordings are scarce, and this 1996 performance by Andrew Moguleria and the Queensland Symphony Orchestra is the world premiere recording.
