description
It seemed natural for Le Poème Harmonique, which has already recorded some of the greatest works in the 17th-century French sacred repertoire, to contribute to Alphas Versailles Collection by giving its vision of François Couperins Leçons de Ténèbres. To this it adds a work as masterful as it is forgotten: Louis-Nicolas Clérambaults Miserere. • The Leçons de Ténèbres were written by François Couperin for the Holy Week liturgies of 1714, at the Abbey of Longchamp. They take up the Old Testament text from the Lamentations of Jeremiah, wherein the prophet deplores the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians. In the Catholic tradition, they symbolize the solitude of Christ, abandoned by his apostles. • Isabelle Druet, Hasnaa Bennani, Claire Lefilliâtre and Vincent Dumestre give us an interpretation in which the affect is, of course, at the service of a rhetoric appropriate for the period and this repertoire whilst fully exploiting the lyric beauty of these works.
