"... a stylish, well-recorded recital."
- BBC Music Magazine
"The whole suite is played with great relish by the ensemble with a good balance between the instruments."
- Early Music Review
This programme dedicated to Jean-Marie Leclair was released to commemorate the 250th anniversary of his death and includes a selection of sonatas and the Deuxième récréation de musique. Considered one of the greatest French violin composers, the variety, sensuality and luxury of Leclair's music are brought to life on period instruments by the Four Nations Ensemble.
