About the album

Een aangename ervaring voor zowel liefhebbers als nieuwkomers
Dit is een album met werken van Louis Couperin en Jean-Henri d’Anglebert uitgevoerd door Jacques Ogg. Toen het album voor het eerst werd uitgebracht werd het overal ter wereld met enthousiasme ontvangen, zoals blijkt uit quotes uit de verschillende recensies: “Jacques Ogg makes the suites a revelation of how this period of music can sound,” “This recording will give much pleasure to both the curious and the converted”

Jacques Ogg studeerde onder Anneke Uittenbosch en Gustav Leonhardt aan het Sweelinck Conservatorium Amsterdam. Hij treedt over de hele wereld op als klavecinist en fortepianist en geeft regelmatig masterclasses. Sinds de verschijning van zijn eerste album heeft hij een indrukwekkende discografie opgebouwd, zowel als solist als met zijn partner, fluitist Wilbert Hazelzet. Hij is inmiddels zeer bekend onder liefhebbers van klavecimbelmuziek.

Jean-Henry d'Anglebert

Jean-Henry D'Anglebert was a French composer of keyboard music from the Baroque period. D'Anglebert might have been a student of Jean Champion de Chambonnières, the founder of what the early French harpsichord school. In any case, both these harpsichordists have had a major impact on keyboard music, and in particular the keyboard suite.  Only one publication of D'Anglebert, one from 1689, is known to survive. This collection consists of 57 works - original works and transcriptions of orchestral parts and arias from operas by Jean-Baptiste Lully - for harpsichord in 4 suites, and 5 works for organs and 5 educational pieces for keyboard accompaniment. The suites are quite long due the inclusion of transcriptions of works by Lully and vaudevilles (popular melodies),...

Jean-Henry D'Anglebert was a French composer of keyboard music from the Baroque period.

In any case, both these harpsichordists have had a major impact on keyboard music, and in particular the keyboard suite. Only one publication of D'Anglebert, one from 1689, is known to survive. This collection consists of 57 works - original works and transcriptions of orchestral parts and arias from operas by Jean-Baptiste Lully - for harpsichord in 4 suites, and 5 works for organs and 5 educational pieces for keyboard accompaniment. The suites are quite long due the inclusion of transcriptions of works by Lully and vaudevilles (popular melodies), to fill the pages. This strive for using the space of the pages most optimally can also be found in his own music, which is strongly modified making the pages black with all the notes and embellishments. This creates a very thick, musical texture. The keyboard arrangements of the full, five part orchestral works by Lully, too, influenced D'Anglebert's own dances. In his allemanes and gigues he made use of thick, five-voiced chords and cramped elaborations within the work itself. His gigues are remarkably fast in tempo and his two polyphonic gigues in 12/8th measure are the first of their kind in France.
