Marais and Couperin – Concert at Pomona College

Artifex Consort presents a virtuosic program of French Baroque music 

for Viols; with Ian Pritchard, harpsichord

Featuring both of Marin Marais's Pièces à 3 Violes and  

La Reveuse (Suite d'un Goût Etranger)

from the Pièces de Viole Livre IV (1717); 

Louis Couperin's Pavane in F-Sharp Minor

The height of rhetorical brilliance, 

these works showcase Marin Marais as master musical conversationalist, 

able to eloquently contrast childlike play with deep pathos, 

dramatic pyrotechnics with poised courtly-dance sensibilities, 

and cunning intellect with raucous humor.
