Sempé's love and aptitude for English music shines through in this masterful performance. The virginal is a keyboard instrument for chamber use that was widely popular in the 16th and 17th centuries, especially in England. Smaller than a harpsichord and taking up less space due to its horizontal box shape, it was preferred as a household item for enjoying music in private living spaces. Sempé has carefully selected works from manuscript and printed scores for this instrument written in England, including arrangements of ensemble pieces, and with the help of Olivier Fortin and Pierre Antaï, he has also included performances on two and three keyboards, bringing us closer to the acoustic space of days gone by. The catalog has been remastered by Hugues Deschaux, a talented technician who gained international attention for his work on the early Alpha label recordings, and the strange sounds spun out from the layers of beautiful string-plucked notes have been restored.
