Notes & Reviews:

ATMA rings in the Christmas season with the reissue of a recording of French noels by Baroque composers performed by Montreal period ensemble Les Boreades on recorders, violin, viola da gamba, and harpsichord. These traditional noels by Claude Balbastre, Michel Corrette, Louis Claude Daquin and Jean-Francois Dandrieu are intimate and elegant, and make a unique contribution to any collection of festive seasonal music. Borrowing tunes from popular songs of the day, these 18th century composers wrote noels that are simple in nature, combining joy and devotion.
