About this product
Alpha Classics proudly presents InchBaroque StoriesInch, a new series of recordings devoted to young talents in early music; it's first recording introduces Louise Acabo, a French harpsichordist and winner of several international competitions who divides her time between Paris and Basel. She has chosen to devote her debut recording to Jacques Champion de Chambonnieres (ca1601-1672), composer of more than 150 harpsichord pieces and the first French musician of the 17th century to publish volumes of works for harpsichord. InchOnce you have heard the harpsichord played by the Sieur de Chambonnieres, you need hear nothing elseInch, stated the Harmonie universelle of 1636. It was this unique relationship with sound that appealed to Louise Acabo Inchhis writing, eminently vocal, demands that the player transcend the mechanical aspect of the instrument and approach it's strength and fragility with supplenessInch. Although Chambonnieres never left France, his work crossed borders and influenced composers abroad, the English in particular. Louise Acabo has constructed her own list of works from available sources, alternating works by Chambonnieres with compositions by Locke, Preston and Bryne. Album Tracks 1.

In the second half of the seventeenth century, London experienced an artistic golden age, with the arrival of many foreign musicians and the proliferation of theatres and concert halls wher e audiences came to listen to the stars of the moment. One of these musicians was the Italian Nicola Matteis, who arrived around 1660 and became the sensation of the London music scene. Purcell was only a child at the time and there is no record of their meeting, but it is very likely that he was familiar with Matteis's works, including his Ayres, recorded here for the first time in a version for four-part consort. Exploration of this London effervescence yields to some surprising discoveries, such as the music of a mysterious composer who published trio sonatas around 1715 under the name Mrs Philarmonica. Le Consort presents the very first recording of this highly interesting music, probably influenced by Corelli and very likely written by a woman composer who, given the conventions of the time, made use of a pseudonym. Her true identity is unfortunately unknown to us. Album Tracks 12. Sonata Sesta in G Major (Divertimenti da Camera a due violini Violoncello o Cembalo)~II. Con Spirito ma non presto 20. Ayres for the Violin, Book 1~Suite in A Minor. Sarabanda amorosa 23. Ayres for the Violin, Book 1~Suite in A Minor. Scaramuccia
