Baroque Nouveau
Jean-Philippe Rameau
RR releases Jean-Philippe Rameau’s Pièces de Clavecin en concerts, from the new and exciting period-instrument ensemble Baroque Nouveau (Charles Sherman, harpsichord; Anthony Martin, violin; Stephen Schultz, baroque flute; and Josh Lee, viola da gamba). All of these superb musicians perform with Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra and other specialist groups.
This repertoire is a collection of Rameau’s most appealing, tuneful compositions with improvisational embellishments galore! We recorded this project in June 2008 at famed Skywalker Sound.

Reviews:
“If you like your Rameau big, strong, and in your face, this disc of the French Baroque composer’s Piéces de clavecin en concerts performed by Baroque Nouveau recorded and released by Reference Recordings will be the disc for you. … Similarly, Reference Recording’s incredibly clean and immediate sound may seem like too much of a good thing in comparison to Telefunken’s cool, clear but evocative stereo sound. Still, the effectiveness of both the performance and the sound here cannot be denied, and those who enjoy French Baroque chamber music may well enjoy this disc.” —James Leonard, AllMusic
