Title:
Folies d'Espagne

Info: Variations on 'les Folies d'Espagne'. Prelude for Violin And Theorbo. Suite in Aminor. Chaconne for soloharpsichord. Suite in D minor. Ensemble a deux violes esgales dir. Jonathan Dunford. Previously unrecorded the two suites on this enterprising CD aremade up from 45 unpublished pieces which form part of a collection of 150 earlyworks presented by Marais to a Scottish fellow-student of Monsieur deSainte-Colombe. The Scotsman HarieMaule by name carried the manuscripts off with him to Edinburgh whereJonathan Dunford's researches brought them to light together with an'original' version of the celebrated 'Folies d'Espagne'. Anyone with an interest in the music ofMarais - perhaps as a result of seeing the celebrated film 'Tous les Matins duMonde' - will not want to miss this fascinating release.
