Music reviews of A Portrait of Love: Music for the French Court
Music Review: A Real Jem at a fashion jewellery price
Rating: 5 Stars
OK, early 18th Century music with harpsichords in the back and foreground is not to everyone's taste, but this recording is certainly worth trying. Its melodic, delicate, charming - everything love should be. Its worth getting the CD for Nancy Argenta's singing alone. All this for under [price]- its a steal!
