Excerpt:

Loves, delights and chamber music
It is often said that all of Couperin’s art is expressed in half-tones: this portrait – a discipline in which the oragnist of Saint Gervais was a past master – may be admirably applied to these four exquisite works written for the Sunday entertainments of the Sun King.

This title was released for the first time in 1985.
