A Baroque Portrait: Élisabeth Jacquet de La Guerre

A Baroque Portrait: Élisabeth Jacquet de La Guerre

Sonatas for solo violin and basso continuo, and Suite in D Minor for harpsichord by the French Baroque composer Élisabeth Jacquet de La Guerre. She stands out as a unique figure in the history of music, recognized as one of the few prominent female composers of her era. Her distinction goes beyond her gender; she also defied the norms of the time by composing in a broad range of forms and genres. Jacquet de La Guerre’s works will be complemented by Caprices for solo violin by Louis-Gabriel Guillemain.
Edson Scheid (New York), Baroque violin, Christine Gevert, harpsichord.
