Couperin - Leçons de ténèbres
The French soprano Hanna Bayodi and the Portuguese Ana Quintans join the Ricercar Consort. The music is by maestro Couperin “le Grand,” who just prior to his death had his printer’s licence renewed in order to be able to publish all his music. However, Couperin’s family neglected to pursue the matter, which resulted in the loss of six sets of leçons de ténèbres.
