About

After a first disc devoted to English music, La Rêveuse introduces us to the sound world of Louis de Caix d’Hervelois.

As heir to Marin Marais and one of his most brilliant pupils, Caix brought the bass viol new prestige in an era that was gradually abandoning the instrument.

This composer skilled in expressing the elegance and grace of the Enlightenment era left us a substantial and varied corpus of music, a vivid portrait gallery in which bass viol, ‘pardessus de viole’ and flute shine with especial lustre.

La Rêveuse:
- Florence Bolton (pardessus de viole, bass viol)
- Serge Saitta (transverse flute, piccolo)
- Emily Audouin (bass viol)
- Carsten Lohff (harpsichord)
- Benjamin Perrot (Baroque guitar, theorbo)
