As the most important French composer of his generation, Fr.-A. Danican left behind works that left a lasting mark on the valid art form of opéra-comique.
The six quadros with their French esprit captivate with bold, rapid changes of theme and abundant ornamentation.... At its finest.
The six quartets form the only instrumental cycle that the brilliant French baroque master left us. The rediscovery could not be dispensed with.
Enjoy the work, which is enriched with fine French esprit and captivates with bold, rapid changes of themes and abundant ornamentation.
The chess world champion Philidor also proves himself in his 6 only instrumental quadros: the genius congenially overcomes the baroque compositional scheme.
It gives us and the discoverers of Philidor pleasure to have completely snatched the convolute from oblivion with the 6th quartet. Rewarding and easy.
Carmen Saeculare was french composer Philidor's major choral work which he wrote in London while teaching in the 1770's.
