The tragic operas of the French Baroque can be rough going for the new listener, whose eyes may glaze over when hearing about rules of French prosody, classical models, and Lully's dominance of the scene. But this single-disc recital solves any problems you may have had in encountering operatic music from Lully to Gluck. Credit soprano Véronique ...

Jean-Baptiste Lully, born Giovanni Battista Lulli in Florence in 1632, moved to France early in his career.

composed by Jean-Baptiste Lully

The pastoral tragedy Acis et Galatée was Lully's last finished work, a three-act extravaganza complete with an opening Prologue, a closing Passacaglia, and assorted dances interspersed throughout.

With its Art and Music series, Naxos has come up with a classy looking way of recycling earlier items from its catalog. The discs in the series don't quite deliver what they promise, but this one does better than most. The title Rembrandt: Music of His Time is accurate as far as it goes; the art-historical essay on Rembrandt by Hugh Griffith is ...

Harmonia Mundi's reissue of performances of Philippe Herreweghe leading the Chapelle Royale Opera Orchestra & Chorus includes two motets by Lully and one by his countryman and contemporary Henry Dumont.

Bartók in the Desert: The Art of Irén Marik introduces most of us to this Hungarian pianist, who had once studied with Béla Bartók and made her London debut in 1927. This Arbiter Records release is the first in what one hopes will be an extended summary of her work in terms of recordings. Marik recorded in the 1950s for the short-lived Zodiac ...

composed by Jean-Baptiste Lully

This 1987 recording of Lully's Petits Motets, or small motets, was among those that established the sterling reputation of American-French conductor William Christie and his handpicked group, Les Arts Florissants. The historical-performance movement was well under way at the time, but it hadn't yet had definitive encounters with the forbidding ...

The 1991 French film Tous les matins du monde (All the Mornings of the World) attracted an audience of unexpected size for a story about French Baroque viol music, becoming a runaway hit in France and Germany and even gained wide distribution in the classical-chary U.S. The commercial ramifications grew with the release of the film's soundtrack, ...
