Well tuned to #radiocapish

Given our Sire @[lector]'s penchant for baroque music, Radiocapish brings you a new weekly appointment titled “Baroque Mondays: at the court of the Capish King.”
This first Monday of September, to kick things off, we offer you the listening of the “Livre premier de clavecin” by Jacques Champion de Chambonnières (1601? - 1672), the initiator of the French harpsichord school, whose most renowned representatives are undoubtedly Louis Couperin and his nephew François.
The compositions of the “harpsichordist of the king” Champion de Chambonnières, although often constructed on counterpoint, do not employ forms such as fugues or ricercari; forms that instead enjoyed widespread use between the late 1500s and early 1600s in the Italian school, as well as in the German school at the end of the century. Shaped by the musical structures of dance, his works are mostly in the form of Gigue, Sarabande, Courante, and Chaconne. This characteristic will strongly influence the entire subsequent French school.

Index:

Suite No. 1 in A [A] MINOR (12’32’’)

Suite No. 2 in C [C] MAJOR (7’43’’)

Suite No. 3 in D [D] MINOR (16’03’’)

Suite No. 4 in F [F] MAJOR (8’27’’)

Suite No. 5 in G [G] MINOR (14’34’’)

On harpsichord: the Canadian Kenneth Gilbert (1931 – 2020).

Enjoy your listening.
