Credits
released April 24, 1975
Martha Blackman, viola da gamba; Harpsichord: Stephen Pollard, harpsichord,
Michelle Morran, French reading, John Barson, slide projecting (not here).
Note: “Concert 3b - Marais Pieces” below has the same Marais pieces preceded by readings of French texts and accompanied by projected slides of paintings (but not here).
Note: The point of this concert is to demonstrate the similarity of the musical performance practice with the spoken language.
(Cf. Jacqueline du Prés and her teacher playing Rameau “duets” where this quality is totally missing.)
