However, by understanding the historical context and lifestyle of the era in which these works were created, we can appreciate their true charm even more deeply. Céline Frisch, co-director of the pioneering French ensemble Café Zimmermann—which has always placed great importance on historical context—demonstrates in this recording just how rich a musical world is woven by placing the works within their historical context, and vividly demonstrates the subtleties of each piece through her nuanced performance. Featuring Louis XV, who took Madame de Pompadour as his mistress and long ruled a France adorned with Rococo splendor (1710–1774)—who took Madame de Pompadour as his mistress and ruled France for many years amid the splendor of the Rococo era—as the central figure, this album features a selection of harpsichord miniatures that evoke a glimpse into royal life. By retracing a day in his life from waking to sleeping, this groundbreaking program makes everything—from lesser-known composers to Couperin’s famous works—sound surprisingly fresh. The instruments used, capable of producing a diverse range of timbres, faithfully capture the delicate sound of the Rococo era, allowing listeners to fully savor the lesser-known aspects of 18th-century music.\n\nThe Japanese edition includes a translated liner note packed with fascinating anecdotes, such as memories of Gustav Leonhardt.\nTranslation of liner notes for the Japanese edition: Tatsuo Shirasawa\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374660804897,"sku":"4589538779658","price":2673.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538779658.jpg?v=1787632243","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538779658","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
