Notes & Reviews:
Marin Marais was the master of an instrument that rapidly fell into disuse compared to the organ and harpsichord. His name may have been completely forgotten, had it not been for a number of viola da gamba enthusiasts. Among his surviving music are some six hundred pieces for solo viol, and a hundred odd for two or three viols. A unique achievement of its type, equal to the corpus of Lieder by Schubert. These very moving performances are beautifully recorded and presented by Glossa.
