Where it came from
Released in 2005 by the French label Zig Zag Territoires, this recording features the suites for theorbo by Robert de Visée, a composer and lutenist who served in the court of Louis XIV. The album was produced as part of an effort to illuminate the intricate, intimate repertoire of the French baroque, a style characterized by its improvisatory grace and technical delicacy. By focusing on the theorbo, a large, deep-toned lute with extended bass strings, the performance highlights the sophisticated courtly atmosphere of the seventeenth-century French monarchy.
The recording features performances by Pascal Monteilhet alongside Amélie Michel, Amandine Beyer, and Marianne Muller. The ensemble sought to capture the nuance of de Visée’s compositions, which were intended for private domestic entertainment rather than grand orchestral display. Upon its release, the album was noted for the warmth of its production and the clarity of the theorbo’s complex overtones, earning recognition for its contribution to historically informed performance practices.
