description
The life and times of Gaspard le Roux are more than usually shrouded by the mists of time. He died in Paris, around 1707. Much else is guesswork. By that time he had become among the most renowned keyboard players in Paris, handsomely paid both for his compositions and his performances. As was common, he wrote music to play himself; the identification between composer and performer was as strong as it later became again in the 20th century with the advent of popular singer-songwriters. The suites on this new recording were first issued by the distinguished publisher Etienne Roger, who also acted as an agent and promoter for Handel, among others. They are written as a richly ornamented sequence of dances, by turns measured and sprightly, full of courtly manners but at the same time not overlaid with formality.
