Our Take

Antiques Roadshow meets Studio 54 in this extravagant musical journey back to the court of Louis XIV. VARIOUS ARTISTS Charpentier. Lully. Du Mont - Louis Xiv - Les Musiques Du Roi-Soleil is a lavish compilation of Baroque masterpieces that will transport you straight to the opulent halls of Versailles.

From the grandiose orchestrations of Marc-Antoine Charpentier to the elegant dance rhythms of Jean-Baptiste Lully, this album showcases the musical splendour of the Sun King’s reign. Du Mont’s emotive compositions add a touch of drama, perfectly capturing the essence of courtly life during this era.

Each track on the album is like a sparkling jewel, with intricate details and rich textures that come together to create a truly luxurious listening experience. The shimmering strings, majestic horns, and delicate harpsichord melodies combine to form a sound that is both extravagant and refined.

Despite its historical context, VARIOUS ARTISTS Charpentier. Lully. Du Mont - Louis Xiv - Les Musiques Du Roi-Soleil feels surprisingly fresh and modern. It’s as if the ghosts of Louis XIV and his court musicians have been resurrected and are now throwing a disco party in the 21st century.

So dust off your powdered wigs and silk stockings, because this album is guaranteed to make you feel like royalty. Long live the Sun King and his musical legacy!
