Our Take

From the depths of classical music history emerges David Plantier, leading the charge with his latest opus, "Les Plaisirs Du Parnasse: Les Violons Des Lumieres." This album is a rollercoaster of emotions, taking you on a journey through the highs and lows of 18th-century French Baroque music.

Plantier's skillful violin playing is nothing short of mesmerising, transporting you to a time when wigs were big and music was even bigger. The ensemble, Les Violons Des Lumieres, provides the perfect backdrop for Plantier's virtuosic performance, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is both elegant and invigorating.

Tracks like "Sonata in G Major: I. Allegro" showcase Plantier's technical prowess, with lightning-fast runs and delicate phrasing that will leave you breathless. Meanwhile, "Concerto in A Major: II. Grave" is a hauntingly beautiful piece that will tug at your heartstrings.

But it's not all serious business here - Plantier and his ensemble know how to have fun, too. The lively rhythms and playful melodies of "Concerto in D Major: III. Allegro" will have you tapping your toes and humming along in no time.

In conclusion, "Les Plaisirs Du Parnasse" is a delightful romp through the world of French Baroque music, expertly curated by the one and only David Plantier. So grab your wig, pour yourself a glass of champagne, and let yourself be transported to a bygone era of musical splendour. Trust us, you won't regret it.
