The Golden Hour
Label: ALPHA Catalog: ALPHA1059 Format: COMPACT DISC Lucile Boulanger Simon Pierre Olivier FortinWe are around the time of the Regency, at the political crossroads between Louis XIV and Louis XV. The viola da gamba was enjoying its last hours of glory in France, while the violin was beginning to take centre stage. The Golden Hour, which generally refers to the periods after sunrise and before sunset when the light changes, evokes here those years of convergence, even confrontation, between a viola da gamba in the twilight of its life and a violin at the dawn of its soloist destiny.
