Anne Whelan | harpsichord

French baroque music is often distinguished by its “graciousness” which may be indicated at the beginning of a piece by the word “gracieusement”. The ancient Greek graces or muses were also sometimes the subject of French harpsichord music. Anne Whelan presents music of Louis and François Couperin, d’Anglebert, Rameau and Duphly. Welcome to the world of luscious harpsichord music!
