Reviews
If you’re thinking ‘ah, just another recording of French viol pieces’, think again. You couldn’t be more wrong. This recording by Florence Bolton and theorbist Benjamin Perrot with members of their ensemble La Rêveuse breaks new ground. The challenges of playing the seven-string bass viol, and the French repertoire in particular, are well known, but Marais himself would have immediately recognised and appreciated Florence Bolton’s artistry and commitment to his music. These are sublimely unfettered performances, perfectly judged and yet remarkably improvisatory in spirit. Julie Anne Sadie
