Music reviews of Rameau: Orchestral Suites Vol. 2 - Anacréon; Daphnis et Eglé
Music Review: A marvelous excursion into the French Baroque era
Rating: 5 Stars
Rameau was limited as to the instrumentation he could use to put together this series of suites. Percussion was limited to the tamborine. Melody depended on the string section with help from the oboes and flutes. You have to realize that these were dance melodies - dances peculiar to the Baroque stage and the Baroque audience. Embellishments are there but they do not detract from the main melody. Strings are used for theme and dynamics. They are the foundation of the driving force compelling the performance. Oboes and flutes are used for contrast. All in all, this CD leads to a very pleasant afternoon of French Baroque music. There is fast, there is slow. There is appreciation of Rameau as an orchestrator given the limited range of instruments he had to deal with. Highly recommended. The best of the Baroque.
