Couperin: L'alchimiste - Harpsichord Works Vol. 1

Le petit théâtre du monde Bertrand Cuiller

A miniature theatre of the world. This set launches a new complete recording of François Couperin’s works for harpsichord: an extensive selection of vocal pieces and chamber music. In this first volume, Bertrand Cuiller draws the portrait of a mysterious alchemist: the Ordres, chosen here play with the colour of sounds, alliterations, double meanings and parodies, freely inspired by the world of the theatre. An enigmatic world to which Bertrand Cuiller undoubtedly holds the key.
