Soprano Claudine Ansermet and lutenist Paolo Cherici frequently appear on recording releases which Glossa Cabinet from time to time is putting out, and drawn from the now-disbanded Symphonia label. Here, the delightful chansons of Claude Le Jeune are interspersed with preludes, dances and fantasias for solo lute by figures such as Mertel, Perrichon and Adriaenssen. Le Jeune worked at the court of Henri IV before being succeeded by Pierre Guédron, and was one of the most prolific and significant composers of the second half of the 16th century, and one of the chief exponents of “musique mesurée à l’antique”.
