Voix humaines: Pièces inédites pour flûte

Recorded
Released

While Marin Marais is primarily known today as a composer for the viola da gamba, it turns out that he also wrote more music for flute than we thought. This collection of suites and brief stand-alone pieces was discovered recently in a previously unknown manuscript collection, and the magnificent flutist François Lazarevitch (accompanied by Lucile Boulanger on viola da gamba and Éric Bellocq on guitar and theorbed lute) now allows them to be heard for the first time in centuries. Interestingly, some of the tunes are performed on an early bagpipe.
