Our Take

Vincent Dumestre and his band Le Poeme Harmonique take listeners on a regal and rambunctious ride with their latest offering, "Les Noces Royales De Louis XIV." This album is like the musical equivalent of attending a lavish French royal wedding, complete with Baroque splendor and extravagant ornamentation.

From the moment the first notes of the overture hit, you can't help but feel like you've been transported back in time to the opulent court of the Sun King himself. Dumestre's impeccable attention to detail and mastery of period performance practices bring each track to vibrant life, allowing listeners to immerse themselves in the grandeur and grandiosity of the era.

With a lineup of talented musicians and vocalists, including standout performances from soprano Claire Lefilliâtre and countertenor Damien Guillon, each piece on the album shimmers with elegance and sophistication. Whether it's a lively dance number or a melancholic lament, Le Poeme Harmonique delivers with aplomb.

While some may find the album's adherence to historical accuracy a bit restrictive, there's no denying the sheer beauty and artistry on display here. "Les Noces Royales De Louis XIV" is a sumptuous feast for the ears, a decadent musical banquet that will leave you craving more. So don your finest attire, raise a glass of champagne, and let Vincent Dumestre and Le Poeme Harmonique serenade you into a state of aristocratic bliss. Cheers to that!
