Music reviews of Rameau - Les Indes Galantes, Suites d'orchestre / La Chapelle Royale ? Herreweghe
Music Review: France's Greatest Composer
Rating: 5 Stars
I have no hestiation in recommending this beautiful collection of orchestral suites by Jean Philippe Rameau, a man I consider to be France's greatest composer.
Rameau is a contemporary of J.S. Bach, although I believe they never met. Concerned with bringing a scientific dimension to music, he wrote a treatise on harmony which is still largely unchanged to this day.
This recording is truly beautiful, bringing his music to life with all its variety and colour.
If you haven't discovered Rameau I urge you to listen to him. There is a statue of him in the town square of Dijon, his home town. If you like his music as much as I do you may feel inclined to pay it a visit when you are next in La Belle France.
Musical discovery is one of man's greatest pleasures. Enjoy!
