£66.95French Masters Suite - Philip Gordon
The rhythm of the dance animates this Suite arranged by Philip Gordon, reflecting the carefree, light-hearted spirit of the French court during the reign of Louis XIV and Louis XV. All three composers here represented--Couperin (1668-1733), La Coste (ca. 1700-1750) and Rameau (1683-1764)--were contemporaries of Bach and Handel. The Rigaudon is a lively dance, characterized by a jumping step that made it quite popular. It was danced in the American Colonies as well as in Europe. The Sarbande is a rather slow dance of Spanish origin; it is calm and staid, putting emphasis on the melody. The Gavotte is a very animated dance, with strongly marked accents; it, too, was very poular and frequently used on gala occasions.
