{"product_id":"ballard-king-heringman-daniels-airs-de-cour","title":"Ballard \/ King \/ Heringman \/ Daniels- Airs de Cour (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eNamed a 'Choice' recording by BBC Music Magazine upon release, this popular recording of seventeenth century vocal music features mezzo-soprano Catherine King and lutenist Jacob Heringman with tenor Charles Daniels. Originally released in 1999, 'Airs de cour' has been re-issued as part of Linn's ECHO series which offers a second chance to enjoy the best of the label's award-winning catalogue. The listener is transported to the French court in a program of courtly airs and solo lute pieces, the latter a suitable complement to the airs and the lost ideals of the courtly society they reflect. Both the self-indulgent texts of these songs and their suave and rhythmically evasive melodies, reflect a society rich in excess, intrigue and dissembling, all the more fascinating for being so distant, no less impressive for being so introverted. Well schooled in period performance, all the performers pay due attention to the authenticity of pronunciation and ornamentation for which scant records remain. 'O dieux je ne sçais pas' is a rare example where an ornamented variant of the melody is included in the manuscript revealing a further level of riches in these songs. Catherine King is acknowledged as one of the most versatile mezzo-sopranos of her generation with an impressive breadth of repertoire. Jacob Heringman has established himself as one of the world's most respected and most innovative solo lute players. Catherine King and Jacob Heringman have made numerous appearances together in festivals throughout Europe, as well as broadcasting frequently for the BBC and for WDR in Cologne. Charles Daniels is an English tenor, particularly noted for his performances of baroque music. He is a frequent soloist with The King's Consort, and has made over 25 recordings with the ensemble.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eObjét Le Plus Beau\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJe Suis Ravi de Mon Uranie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEn Fin la Beauté Que J'adore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSi L'amour Com'on Dit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBranles de Village - Jacob Heringman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUn Jour Amarille Et Tircis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eN'espérez Plus, Mes Yeux\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eObjét Dont Les Charmes Si Doux\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMourons Tirsis, Vivons Silvie 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMa Belle, Si Ton Ame 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVous Me Juries - Jacob Heringman 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBergamasco - Jacob Heringman 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdieu Bergère Pour Jamais 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSi Jamais Mon Ame Blessée 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeureux Qui Nuit Et Jour 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSi Le Parler Et Le Silence 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoupirs Meslés D'amour 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEntrée de Luth - Jacob Heringman 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCourante - Jacob Heringman 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eO Dieux Je Ne Sçais Pas 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQue Philis A de Perfections 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJeune Merveille\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46983592116445,"sku":"691062008938","price":145.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/3067481.jpg?v=1762925696","url":"https:\/\/darksiderecords.myshopify.com\/products\/ballard-king-heringman-daniels-airs-de-cour","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
