About this product
Venus, irritated by the young mortal Psyché whose beauty radiates all across the world, dispatches Cupid to impose a thousand trials upon her, which the young victim triumphs over to the point of becoming immortal. In this mythological fable, which is his sixth tragédie lyrique (1678), Lully shows off his immense talent and takes revenge on Molière, for whom he had written the music of a monumental Psyché in 1671, and which had been the cause of their falling out. A connoisseur of Lully, Christophe Rousset conducts a sumptuous cast that gives his Psyché all the luster of the great French operas!

![Christophe Rousset - Armand-Louis Couperin: Pieces De Clavecin - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/592c267d-3a44-47e8-9b6c-73dc3218634e.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Armand-Louis Couperin - François Couperin was his father's cousin - was regarded as one of the finest musicians of his time, and his compositions, though little known today, provide us with precious evidence of the brilliance of the French harpsichord school and the skills of one of it's most virtuosic representatives. This is the first ever recording of Armand-Louis Couperin's sensuous and very original Pièces de clavecin, op. 1. Playing on a period instrument by Jean-Claude Goujon, now in the Musée de la Musique in Paris, Christophe Rousset brings out all the unique flavor of this music.
