L'Union de l'Amour et Des Arts is an "opéra-ballet" (also referred to as a Ballet héroïque") in three acts by Étienne Joseph Floquet (1748-1785)[1], based on a book by Pierre-René Lemmonier.


The original text

The three acts of the operatic work are: "Bathilde et Chloë", "Théodore", "La cour d'Amour ou Les troubadours", and they were apparently sometimes performed singly.

First performed in Paris at the Académie Royale de Musique, on 7 September, 1773
