Jean-Baptiste Lully transformed opera into a French art under the royal patronage of Louis XIV, who was himself a fine dancer. Only the overture, the prologue, the first act, and part of the second act survive. Its premiere almost certainly inaugurated the Académie Royale de Musique (now the Paris Opéra) on March 3, 1671. Pomone (1671) by Robert Cambert, on a pastoral libretto by Pierre Perrin involving ballet, spectacle, and machinery, is commonly called the first French opera. Opera was imported into France from Italy well before 1650, but it long failed to take firm hold there with royal and other audiences, initially having to compete on unequal terms with the spoken drama (often with musical interludes) and the ballet, the favourite form of musical entertainment at court.
