After hearing Rameau one has a sense of where Berlioz comes from, even if he himself said that Gluck was his primary inspiration, there is no question that something of this affective writing found its way, however coincidentally, into Berlioz's music.

Est-ce que c'est la scene de la finale de l'opera?

No, it is the end of the second act. There is still much more of the opera after that scene.

For sure, french baroque composers had a great influence on Bach, specially on his keyboard works, but it can also be heard on his vocal works as well.

At he beginning of his career, still in Lünenberg, as young as 15, Bach had already known and studied pieces of composers like Jean-Baptiste Lully, François Couperin and other, being Couperin and the italian Antonio Vivaldi his lifetime greatest favourites.
