In this recital we want to introduce our listeners to the finesse and diversity of music from the royal French court in the early 18th century. We have chosen pieces by highly acclaimed and stylistically exceptional composers and aim to revive the spirit of Noblesse and to present the baroque “good taste” in musical matters: the so often cited “Bon Goût”.
