Free Music Notes for Marais & Sainte-Colombe: The Greatest Masterworks

Free Music Review: Nice Selection of Marais' Viola Da Gamba Music
Hit: 5 Stars

Naxos' mission is to make available to an international audience all significant Classical music compositions at budget price with lesser known but talented artists and high recording quality. This company policy allows the issue and maintenance in their catalog of CDs such as this one, which is a great collection of the music of Marin Marais composed for viola da gamba. Marais was the most popular and prolific of the 17th Century French composers for the Viola da Gamba, an antique predecessor to the cello or bass. Coupled with a harpsichord continuo,this hauntingly beautiful chamber music takes anyone back to a time before the industrial revolution when the rich wore elaborate wigs and clothing, and paid musicians to create music for their ornate parlors.While the performances may or may not be comparable to those on CDs costing about twice as much, for the overwhelming majority of listeners they are of outstanding quality.This and other Naxos discs are an affordable introduction to a style and period of music which offers a unique peacefulness and emotion in music. If this and other Naxos CDs are not good enough, just buy the full-price CDs and have fun comparing them. Take a walk on the baroque side.
