His melodic imagination displays admirable freshness. He possesses
a delicate harmonic sense. His themes show the inspirations of an

these magnificent works (there are over 200 compositions in the two
volumes) lies the supreme achievement of French keyboard music, a rich
source of subtle, sometimes startling, always pleasurable music for
keyboard artists and students at every level of expertise. The moods,
rhythms, and melodies of these distinctive compositions range across a
broad musical spectrum, from crisp gavottes to noble sarabandes, from
flowing allemandes to lively gigues. Some of the pieces suggest carnival
merriment, others tender reflection; most have colorful and mysterious
names. Couperin's virtuoso command of harpsichord style, his magnificent
technique, and ever-fresh melodic imagination pervade them all.

wonderful legacy of late-baroque masterpieces. Beautifully reproduced in
this inexpensive edition, they make abundantly clear the justice of

French master's surname — "le grand.
