Les Pleurs D’Orphée

with Ricercar Consort

Les Pleurs D’Orphée
Jean Rondeau’s Wigmore Hall Residency continues with its focus on the music of Louis Couperin (and a detour into the imagination of Luigi Rossi). The French harpsichordist, commended by the Washington Post as ‘a master of his instrument with the sort of communicative gifts normally encountered in musicians twice his age’, is joined by Philippe Pierlot’s Ricercar Consort, among today’s finest interpreters of Baroque repertoire.
