| |  | Social Dances from the Early Baroque
Regina Kabis (soprano) & Benoit Haller (tenor) I Ciarlatani, Klaus Winkler (director) In contrast with the familiar, well-researched ballets and dances of the High Baroque, as exemplified at Versailles under Louis XIV, very little is known about social dancing in France around 1600. There was no established style of dance step notation at this time and the dancing masters' own collections remain largely undiscovered. This wonderful collection of curiosities performed by I Ciarlatani and researched by dance expert Nicoline Winkler, offers fascinating insights into the social dances of the Early Baroque period. |

| |  | Michael Praetorius - Pro Organico
Jean-Charles Ablitzer (organ Hans Scherer de Tangermünde 1624) The works of Michael Praetorius (1571-1621), an outstanding
composer and great innovator, have mainly come to the
contemporary public's attention thanks to his collection of dances
under the name of Terpsichore and to his theoretical writings.
Jean-Charles Ablitzer here gives us the first recording of 10 organ
pieces selected from his Musae Soniae, fantasies on Lutherian
melodies) and from his Hymnodia Sonia (Latin hymns).
This interpretation, already acclaimed by a 'Choc' from the Monde
de la Musique, reveals Praetorius as an inspired and gentle colourist, whose musical idiom will left a deep
imprint on the first generation of baroque composers.The musicological rigour and the great sensitivity of the
interpreter is further expressed by the choice of the historic organ of the church of St. Stephan in
Tangermünde. Not only is it a contemporary of the composer, but an identical model by the same maker is
extensively described in Praetorius' Syntagma Musicum. | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
