Music Review: Sparkling Couperin Performance
Rating: 5 Stars
I was never able to buy the complete Couperin keyboard recordings by Christophe Rousset before that set was deleted from the catalog. This 11 CD set by Michael Borgstede was the only set I could find when I ordered it in 2007. I am glad I found it. Borgstede performs this large repertoire without a hint of boredom. He achieves consistency of style without sameness. Generally using a light, filigree and rhythymically lively style that allows the listener to hear distinctly the separate voices in the music (compare his Les Baricades Misterieuses on disc 4 to Blandine Verlet Astree Naive E 3003- also very well done, but denser), he can be weightier; for example disc 6, Les Triomphante, a battle depiction, the relentless advance of the victorious army portrayed by the uncharacteristic instruction for the French: "croches egales" (equal quarter notes).
His instrument, a Ruckers replica, is never "jangly" or overly loud and tiring to the ear. Great set and fabulous value.
