Song Meaning of “Phaëton, LWV 61: Air pour Triton et ses suivants “L’automne”” by Jean-Baptiste Lully
This song is a beautiful journey to the depths of the sea and a poetic retelling of the classic Greek myth of Phaëton.
The deep tones of this song embody the depths of the sea that once echoed with the sounds of the storm crashing against the sides of the ship of Triton and his followers. As the stormy waters threatened to engulf them, Triton’s faith in the gods was strengthened, knowing they would bring them safely back from embarking on such a daring journey.
As the sun rises over the sea, the music carries the listeners further into the depths of the depths of the ocean. The melody shifts with the waves, mirroring the life and beauty of the marine landscape. Gentle arpeggios create a captivating texture, an atmosphere of serenity illuminated by the shimmering rays of sunlight.
The song’s climax reflects the moment when the heroes come into contact with the beautiful island of the goddess Aphrodite. This is where they discover the lost secrets of the sea, the source of power that will bring their story to life. The sun shines brightest at this moment and the melody motifs gain momentum and intensity until the chorus takes over and leads them on to their final destination.
The song finishes with an uplifting harmony as the heroes triumphantly return home. This song is a fitting conclusion to the voyage as it brings together the sorrows of loss and the joys of rediscovery in a truly beautiful way.
