Podeur; Bass

Composed by: Rameau, Jean-Phillippe

Rameau’s ‘Pieces de clavecin en concerts’ first appeared in Paris in 1741. These brilliantly original and sole examples of instrumental chamber music in his oeuvre, they include five concerts originally written for harpsichord, violin (or flute) and bass viol (or second violin). The transcriptions recorded here by the duo of Mireille Podeur and Orlando Bass are the result of practical experiment informed by historical practice and galvanized by the prospect of ample improvisational opportunities.
