Music reviews of Complete Works for Guitar
Music Review: 220 Minutes of Superb Guitar Music
Rating: 4 Stars
This is young French-Canadian guitarist David Jacques' three-disc `tour de force' of playing the complete works of Robert de Visée (c. 1650 - c. 1732), court musician at Versailles to Louis XIV, the French `Le Roi Soleil'.
De Visée was singer, teacher and player of the guitar, the lute, the theorbo and the viola da gamba, as well as composer of music. A rare compilation in itself, the two books of his guitar music survives with twelve suites - an informal collection of dances, written in the same key, intended to be played in a certain sequence.
With David Jacques holding a doctorate on the different versions of manuscripts and transcriptions of Robert de Visée's guitar pieces - sometimes very different from the interpretations on the baroque five-course guitar - we can now assume we are hearing the authentic performance of these pieces played on a facsimile of a periodic baroque instrument.
