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.

This recording has been a labour of love and commitment and has engaged musicologist Nicholas Anderson in writing new articles on the music of Couperin in the notes.    




Reviews of her earlier recordings on Metronome:
 
“Cerasi’s playing exhibits a flawless technique and, where tempos and ornaments are concerned, exemplary good taste.”
International Record Review

“Carole Cerasi has always seemed to me to be one of the finest harpsichordists alive today, and this recital fully confirms my earlier impression. This will certainly remain for me a reading to treasure.”
Early Music Review
