Jason et Médée
''Jason et Médée'' (''Jason and Medea'') is a ''ballet d'action'' choreographed by Jean-Georges Noverre to music by Jean-Joseph Rodolphe. The ballet was first staged in the Stuttgart Opera House on Friday, 11 February 1763, in celebration of the Duke of Württemberg's birthday. The plot follows the myth of Jason and the Golden Fleece, and Medea's murder of her children. ''Jason et Médée'' was one of Noverre's greatest successes, with unauthorized productions and adaptations mounted for decades across Europe following its premiere.
==Background==
In 1760, Jean-Georges Noverre recorded his thoughts on dance in ''Lettres sur la danse, et les ballets'' with both French and German editions published in Lyon and Stuttgart the same year. He borrowed ideas explored in Vienna by the dancer-choreographer Franz Hilverding, the writer of reform operas Christoph Willibald Gluck and the librettist Ranieri de' Calzabigi who, like Noverre, were seeking a deeper definition of, and credibility for, ballet and opera. Noverre's ideas on dance and performance were well-suited to the new culture in Germany based on the doctrine of emotions and "sensibility" known as ''Affektenlehre'' (Doctrine of the affections), and, when an invitation to serve the Duke of Württemberg's court was extended him, Noverre accepted.〔
The divorced and theatre-loving Karl Eugen, Duke of Württemberg had at his disposal not only the taxes of his 600,000 subjects but some of the most talented theatre artists of the day: the Neapolitan composer and conductor Niccolò Jommelli; the engineer and scenic artist, Giovanni Niccolò Servandoni; the costume designer Louis-René Boquet; and the dancers Jean Dauberval, Charles le Picq, and the brothers Gaetano and Angiolo Vestris. By 1764, Noverre was directing a company of fifteen principal dancers, and a ''corps de ballet'' of twenty-three men and twenty-one women, mostly trained by himself.〔〔〔
