David Plantier & Les plaisirs du parnasse - Leclair: Violin Sonatas (2021) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Jean-Marie Leclair's Violin Sonatas were published in four volumes between 1723 and 1743. David Plantier here presents a selection of Sonatas from the final three opus numbers of the collection. The consistent quality of Leclair’s forty-eight sonatas, collected in four volumes, is admirable, whilst the collection as a whole is a monumental contribution to the repertoire and to posterity; few of Leclair’s followers were able to combine innovation in violin technique and wealth of inspiration with so much talent. Leclair’s taste, refinement, skill and refusal of all artifice enabled him to make his mark not merely on his own time but on the history of music as a whole.
