The undeniable merit of this recording is that it preserves what a vividly marvelous piece of musical melodrama this opera is, abounding with lyrical moments and cracklingly powerful scenes, and marked throughout by engaged and engaging acting by the principals. It also allows one to contemplate how rich in influences this opera was upon the young Verdi and Wagner, in equal measure. There are pre-echoes here of the choral writing in Flying Dutchman, Wotan’s Spear, even the “Magic Fire Music,” as well as Verdi’s dispensation of groundswell choral scenes and dramatic use of parlando.

« Depuis dix-neuf ans, je n’ai écrit que de biais à “ce sujet”. Aujourd’hui j’y reviens de front, sur la route. La marche à pied ou n’importe quel véhicule auraient fait l’affaire. Mais si je suis à vélo, il doit bien y avoir une raison. »

The Troisième Livre de Pièces pour viole by Marin Marais, the object of the current recording, was printed in 1711 in many aspects is a break from the preceding first two. To start, and most probably echoing a demand from Marais’ clients, he adds some simpler pieces for less skilled players. It would seem that Marais anticipated criticism for urging works on mere mortals that would be too difficult for them to play. A clue may be found in the preface to this third book (1711): “The large number of short and easy pieces I have included is proof that I wanted to satisfy the present circumstances so often reiterated since the publication of my second book”. Having said this, they sit side by side with technically demanding pieces such as the Grand Ballet (track 27) from which the title of this album is taken.

François Couperin, whose 350th birthday we celebrate this year, defined himself as a creator of musical portraits. The eloquent and sometimes exotic titles of many of these pieces bear witness to this. From the Nations to the Collected Tastes, as well as the Royal Concerts and the harpsichord repertoire, Les Folies françoises have painted throughout this album a portrait that pays homage to one of the greatest composers of the Sun King's court.

"J'avais du mal à écrire ; je tournais en rond. Mes personnages me procuraient un vertige d'ennui. J'ai pensé que n'importe quel récit réel aurait plus d'intérêt. Je pouvais descendre dans la rue, arrêter la première personne venue, lui demander de m'o rir quelques éléments biographiques, et j'étais à peu près certain que cela me motiverait davantage qu'une nouvelle invention. C'est ainsi que les choses ont commencé. Je me suis vraiment dit : tu descends dans la rue, tu abordes la première personne que tu vois, et elle sera le sujet de ton livre."…
