Couperin - Deuxième livre, A step into the unknown
With her superb technique, intelligence, taste and refinement, Carole Cerasi is the dream interpreter for Couperin‘s second book, Pièces de Clavecin. More so than the first part, which is a compendium of older compositions, this volume indicates the path the composer now wished to take: style and form become more modern, and there is room for evocative mood pieces and musical portraits.
