Our Take

Les Folies Francoises and Patrick Cohen-Akenine have teamed up to bring us a delightful rendition of Couperin's Concerts Royaux that is as charming as a cup of tea with the Queen. This album is the musical equivalent of a fancy French pastry - intricate, elegant, and oh so satisfying.

From the moment the first notes dance through the air, you are transported to a whimsical world where baroque melodies reign supreme. Cohen-Akenine's impeccable violin playing is like a fine wine - smooth, rich, and full of flavour. Each note is a brushstroke painting a vivid picture of 18th-century France.

The ensemble's ensemble playing is tight and cohesive, like a perfectly executed high five. The musicians navigate the intricate passages with grace and agility, showcasing their technical prowess with flair. It's like watching a well-oiled machine operate with precision and finesse.

The album is a delightful blend of joy and sophistication, with each piece providing a unique glimpse into Couperin's musical genius. Whether you're a seasoned classical music aficionado or a casual listener looking to expand your horizons, Les Folies Francoises / Patrick Cohen-Akenine's interpretation of Concerts Royaux is a must-listen. So grab a glass of champagne, sit back, and let the music take you on a journey through time and space. You won't be disappointed.
