In highly informative historical notes Andrew Appel, Director of the Four Nations Ensemble, draws a comparison between Laclos' famed 18th century novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses and the elaborate yet incisive music of his contemporary Leclair. This recording brings together leading exponents of period instrument performance to present this elegant and sensuous Rococo music to a new audience.
