About
In 1739 Chedeville, who had already made a name for himself as an adaptor of several contemporary works, created a version of "The Four Seasons" including instruments such as the hurdy-gurdy and the musette. As a result of the inclusion of these instruments, alongside the more usual violin and recorder, the music takes on a rural character which found particular favour with wealthy aristocratic amateurs and their romantic fantasies about peasant life.
The ensemble “Les Eclairs de Musique” was founded in 1996. It is made up of artists who have a special knowledge of techniques in the performance of baroque music, many of whom have worked with the greatest baroque groups of recent years including Academia Bizantina, Concerto italiano, I Barocchisti and Les Arts Florissants.
This fascinating and rare recording, which was originally made in 2001 and released the following year, has been re-mastered for 5.1 surround sound and is available for the first time as a hybrid SACD.
