French harpsichord music is really a surprisingly vast universe!!! We can't forget that the Great Bach owes much to his studies of the french "clavecinistes" from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries!

is there anywhere played by piano on utube?

@proulxmontpellier I respectfully disagree with you. I believe you're missing the point here. I was simply trying to make the point that all Baroque music is a complex interwoven fabric in which French, Italian, English and German Baroque music borrowed from each other. I would never use the term "copy" as you're so inclined to do. The French Baroque composers owe much to the Italians, Germans, etc. Without one or the other, Baroque music as we know it would not exist.

Je crois que c'est Scott Ross.

I'm afraid it's quite the opposite. The prestige of the court of Louis XIV was such that everywhere they sought to imitate it. Bach would collect and copy anything French he could lay his hands upon, especially of Couperin. Purcell was obviously and admirer of Lully and the suite form is all through the baroque period essentially French.

@BaroqueMusicOnly Trevor Pinnock - I think?

Très belle pièce, j'ai bien envie de l'apprendre.
Qui est l'interprète, svp?
-
Rameau est le meilleur. La suite est aussi appelée "l'égyptienne", autre niveau que Dalida... France is proud

How metal can he be?

@Bruce88keys Well, like that's your opinion man.
Love this! I only discovered Rameau (to my shame) after watching the first Opera scene in Marie Antoinette, but I'm so glad I have. His music is stunning! Thanks so much for posting this video.
