De La Guerre Elisabeth Jacquet - Sonates Pour Violon

Facts 'Dinner being over, His Majesty spoke to Mlle de la Guerre in a most gracious manner; after having praised her sonatas extensively, he said to her that they could not be compared to any other such works. Mlle de la Guerre could not have received higher praise, for these words revealed that the King had not only found her music to be most fine, but also to be original - a quality that today is extremely rare' (Le Mercure galant, 1707). This new release presents the violin sonatas by Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre.
