About

Aeolus presents the second volume of the Louis Couperin Edition with Bob van Asperen.

This recording was made on the 1681 Vaudry harpsichord in London’s Victoria and Albert Museum and is currently the only audio document available of this famous instrument.

The SACD, the second of four volumes, contains harpsichord suites composed by Louis Couperin (c.1626-1661, an uncle of François Couperin), who lived in Paris in the 17th century. Among the pieces is the famous “Tombeau de Mr Blancrocher” (Suite in F).

The CD’s title, Passacaille de Mr Couperin, refers to the genre of the Passacaille, which is characteristic – together with the related genre of the Chaconne – of Couperin’s work.
