Robert De Visée Suite in B minor
Robert De Visée became chamber musician of the "Sun King" Louis XIV around 1680, and Marquis de Dangeau's diary from 1686 mentions that De Visée was frequently asked to play the guitar in the evenings by the bedside of the king. De Visée's music followed the official courtly French style created by Jean-Baptiste Lully.
In this live performance I'm playing the copy of an early 19th century Fabricatore made by Gioachino Giussani. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hj3-NXa6S68 |

Fantastic! A historically informed (I presume) and first-class performance. Your tone on the instrument is beautiful.
I'd love to hear more about the transcription, your tuning, and what kind of strings you're using... |

That is *beautiful* playing, way inside the style, I'd say. Wish I could do that.

This is really beautiful... personally just learning the Prelude in Dm by De Visee and hearing you play his music is truly an inspiration!
