This
edition of Harpsichord
Work by Antoine Forqueray
has been reviewed and
edited by Colin Tilney.
Dedicated to
_x001A_Madame la
Dauphine_x001A_ (i.e. The
King_x001A_s daughter,
here, the daughter of
Louis XV), this volume
includes six suites fora
total of 32 pieces. Each
of these pieces is
actually named after the
Courtesans of the
Dauphine. With different
degrees of complexity,
these pieces would fit
the skills of players
with an upper
intermediate level and
above. The mark-ups in
this edition are quite
close to those used on
Rameau, his pieces being
popular and well
commented. Antoine
Forqueray was a
harpsichordist under the
King Louis XV period.
Professor of the Dauphine
Henriette-Anne,he
dedicated this piece to
her.
