Immerse yourself in the intricate and captivating world of Robert de Visée's "Visée: Works for Theorbo," released on November 6, 2020, under the Fra Bernardo label. This album is a stunning collection of pieces for the theorbo, a plucked string instrument from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, showcasing the virtuosity and compositional brilliance of Robert de Visée, a renowned French lutenist and guitarist of the late 17th and early 18th centuries.
Spanning a duration of 53 minutes, the album features 16 tracks, each a masterful display of Visée's skill and creativity. The pieces are drawn from the Saizenay Manuscript, a significant source of Visée's music, and include a variety of dance forms and preludes that highlight the instrument's rich, resonant tones and the composer's nuanced expressiveness.
From the contemplative "Prelude in D Minor" to the lively "Gigue in E Minor," the album offers a diverse and engaging journey through the Baroque era's musical landscape. Visée's works for the theorbo are not only historically significant but also deeply enjoyable, making this album a treasure trove for both early music enthusiasts and those new to the genre. Whether you're a seasoned listener or a curious newcomer, "Visée: Works for Theorbo" promises an enriching and delightful experience.
