Synopsis

Product Description
The first disc in the series ' Le Clavecin Francais', performed on the 1707 Nicolas Dumont harpsichord by Davitt Moroney, brings together the complete works of two of the finest composers of French keyboard music, Louis Marchand and Louis-Nicolas Clerambault. This recording features music belonging to the middle period of French keyboard music, spanning the gap between the First School of French harpsichordists (Jacques Champion de Chambonnieres, Louis Couperin and Henry d Anglebert) and the later style epitomized by François Couperin.
 

CD Reviews

The summit of French harpsichord playing
Yves A. Feder | CT | 11/30/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"The famous Borel manuscript performed by Davitt Moroney, an extraordinary interpreter of the French harpsichord literature. A sumptuous and marvelous choice of instruments as well, beautifully recorded. An exemplary idiomatic sound for this selection of real jewels from many period composers. If this period and literature appeal to you, don't miss it!"
