Fil D'argent, Fil D'or
) | Label: Catalog: RAM1405 Format: LABBÉ TREUPEL-FRANCK, MARIE-CELINE LABBEFor their second recording devoted to French Baroque music for two solo transverse flutes, Marie-Céline Labbé and Marion Treupel-Franck perform the six suites by Pierre Danican Philidor (1681-1731), pieces taken from the three collections published by the composer in Paris in 1717 and 1718. Written in a highly original style which portrays the spirit of freedom blowing over Versailles and France during the regency of the Duke d’Orléans, these short suites each comprise a fugue. Several brunettes by Michel Pignolet de Montéclair (1667-1737) are also included. The brunette, a little rustic song with an evocative title, was a musical genre quite popular in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Theselection proposed here will enable the listener to discover another facet of the work of Montéclair, the composer who was the object of the two flautists’ first release.  Price: $27.98 |
