Info for Marais: Works for Viola da gamba & Harpsichord

Viola da gambist (Violoncellist)) Mélisande Corriveau und der Cembalist Eric Milnes enthüllen den Reichtum der Bassgambe in dieser neuen Aufnahme, die ganz dem französischen Komponisten Marin Marais gewidmet ist. Obwohl Marin Marais viele Jahre für die Académie Royale de Musique in Frankreich gearbeitet und vier Opern komponiert hat, ist sein Genie vor allem mit der Bassgambe verbunden. Mit ihrer tiefen und etwas heiseren Stimme bot die Bassgambe eine breite Palette von Farben und Nuancen. Mélisande Corriveau wird von der Kritik für ihre außergewöhnliche musikalische Meisterschaft gelobt und ist als Gambistin, Cellistin und Blockflötenvirtuosin eine Spezialistin in der Interpretation Alter Musik. "Mélisande Corriveau gehört zu einer neuen Generation von Spielern, die über beeindruckende Aufführungsfähigkeiten und Kenntnisse der zeitgenössischen Praxis verfügen. "(Grammophon) Corrivaus Diskographie zählt über 50 Titel auf vielen Labels. Ihre jüngste Duo-Veröffentlichung mit dem Cembalisten Eric Milnes, Pardessus de viole, wurde mit zahlreichen Preisen ausgezeichnet, darunter dem Opus-Preis 2016, den Top 10 der besten klassischen CDs des Jahres von CBC und der Klassik-CD des Jahres von Radio-Canada. Zusammen mit Eric Milnes gründete und leitet sie das Ensemble L'Harmonie des saisons, das für seine Debütaufnahme Las Ciudades de oro im Jahr 2016 mit dem Juno-Preis ausgezeichnet wurde. Der gebürtige New Yorker Eric Milnes hat sich als Dirigent, Cembalist und Organist einen internationalen Ruf als Dirigent, Cembalist und Organist durch seine zahlreichen Auftritte bei den bedeutendsten Festivals und Moderatoren in Nordamerika, Europa, Südamerika und Asien erworben. Als Leiter von Ensembles wie L'Harmonie des saisons, Montreal Baroque, The Portland Baroque Orchestra, The New York Collegium, New York Baroque, Seattle Baroque Orchestra, Les Boréades und Les Délices hat er über fünfzig CDs aufgenommen und unzählige Aufführungen, Rundfunk- und Fernsehproduktionen geleitet.

Mélisande Corriveau
Devotee of Renaissance and baroque music, enthusiast of historic instruments, travel and gourmet food, Mélisande Corriveau is mother to two charming adolescents!

Player of recorders, cello, all viols including the pardessus de viol, she has become a virtuoso at l’Art de toucher, as Couperin put it, on her bevy of instruments. She hunts for new repertoire, is inspired by treatises and takes a keen interest in the historic context of music in society and the musical languages the societies created. Her next conquest is to be the violoncello piccolo!

Playing with her inspiring colleagues with whom she shares so much extraordinary music, musical cameraderie and close friendship, is at the heart of her musical life! She feels privileged to work with her companion and duo partner, musical director and keyboardist, Eric Milnes, her consort partners in Les Voix humaines, her group L’Harmonie des Saisons and her European colleagues in Ensemble Masques, all giving her the gift of ongoing fascinating projects and travel to exotic lands, a nomadic life that reflects the music she loves!

Gramophone: “Mélisande Corriveau is of the new generation of musicians gifted with great interpretive talent as well as knowledge of performance practice… virtuosity, delicacy and elegance, sensitivity and refinement all in the service of colourful and textured expressivity…”

Mélisande Corriveau has recorded extensively on several labels and her recent CD of French 18th century music, Pardessus de viole with Eric Milnes was included in the CBC’s top ten while her ensemble L’Harmonie des saisons was winner of a Juno award in 2016.

She plays on a 1691 Barak Norman viol, a Nathaniel Cross cello from 1700, and a pardessus de viole by Pierre Le Pilleur dated 1755.

Eric Milnes
has been critically acclaimed throughout North America and Europe as one of the most dynamic and compelling early music directors and keyboard artists of the younger generation. A native New Yorker, his imaginative and energized performances have been applauded at the Utrecht, Bremen, Regensburg, Lufthansa, Passau, Boston, Mostly Mozart, Montreal, Vancouver, Ottawa, Berkeley, Santa Fe and San Francisco Early Music Festivals, and in performances in every major North American and European center. As conductor he has directed New York Baroque, The New York Collegium, Trinity Consort, Portland, Oregon, The Northwest Chamber Orchestra, Seattle, I Cantori di New York, Musica Divina, Ottawa, Les Boreades de Montreal, La Bande Montreal Baroque, and Baroquen Voices, Montreal.

As harpsichordist and organist, he has recorded and/or performed with Gustav Leonhardt, Reinhard Goebel, Fabio Biondi, Christophe Rousset, Martin Jester, Andrew Parrott, Manfredo Kraemer, Barthold Kuikjen, Les Voix humaines, Ensemble Rebel, Les Boreades, The American Bach Soloists, and ensembles across North America. Recordings under his direction include Hebrew motets of Salamone Rossi, vocal cantatas of Barbara Strozzi, sacred music of Heinrich Schütz, vocal chamber music of Ristori from Dresden, Handel’s Acis and Galatea, The St. John Passion of Bach, and Bach Sacred Cantatas. A published composer, Mr. Milnes has served with the faculty of several universities and conservatories in New York and in Norway. His degrees are from Columbia University, New York, and The Juilliard School, New York.
