In 1392, King Charles VI of France was declared insane. In the midst of the Hundred Years’ War, his repeated absences left the field open to princes hungry for power and wealth. Thus began three dark decades for the Kingdom of France, torn apart by the civil war between the Armagnacs and the Burgundians, scarred by the bloody defeat at Agincourt, and finally surrendered to the English crown in 1420...

Suites for harpsichord and viola da gamba.
As we delve into the world of François Couperin, we discover, right from his first book for harpsichord in 1713, a tribute to the Sylvains, the spirits of the woods and forests. It is through these rural references – and the imagery they evoke in us today – that we reconstruct French suites which summon the cicada and the birds, and contemplate the budding lilies, the blossoming orchards and the reeds.Dou Justin Taylor and Salomé Gasselin - Country Fair
