VERTIGO

  • Buy

Vertigo conceives of the harpsichord in vividly theatrical terms – a voyage through the unique sound worlds of two French Baroque composers. If Rameau (1683–1764) is the better-known composer today, especially admired for such operatic masterpieces as Hippolyte et Aricie and Platée, the younger Royer (1705–1755) was also a major figure in his time, rising to become master of music at the court of Louis XV. “These two illustrious composers battled for the top spot at the Opéra. Two magicians, two master architects, amongst the most wildly imaginative and brilliant of their era … Two composers who also tried to capture echoes of grand theatre with the palette offered by their keyboard.”
