- Summary:
- "Presented here are two highly contrasting ballets by Christian Cannabich, one based on the legend of Rinaldo and Armida and the other on a moralizing tale by the poet and librettist Jean François Marmontel. Both are representative of the ballet d'action, a more natural and expressive form of ballet that was gaining popularity both at Mannheim and beyond at midcentury." -- Provided by publisher.
