FRANÇOIS COUPERIN COMPLETE WORKS FOR HARPSICHORD
0 Comments
Metronome is delighted to announce the release of new recordings by Carole Cerasi of the complete works for harpsichord of Francois Couperin to coincide with the 350 anniversary of his birth on 10th November 1668. Carole has spent the last 18 months recording these wonderfully varied, subtle and elegant works on 6 harpsichords including two outstanding original instruments across Europe. It continues a long record of distinguished performing of the music of the French baroque, which launched her association with Metronome when she won the Gramophone Award and the Diapason D'Or D'Annee for her recordings of the music of Elizabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, and features in her concert repertoire today - she gave a recital of Couperin at the recent Utrecht International Early Music Festival.
