Couperin, Louis - Suites - Alessandrini, Rinaldo

At the harpsichord, Rinaldo Alessandrini creates several "suites de danse" from the magnificent output of Louis Couperin.
"Louis Couperin’s inspiration is distinguished by its innovative and exploratory content: far from solutions of convenience, his passion is transformed into new and surprising harmonic and rhythmic solutions. His counterpoint becomes the vector of a complexity generally unknown in the keyboard music of his time. The combination of such a tumultuous talent with the grace and nobility of the musical language of seventeenth-century France generates a result that opens out onto unpredictable semantic and expressive horizons."
