This recording realizes Barthold Kuijkens long-held desire to restore to Jean-Baptiste Lully, and to French Baroque orchestral works in general, the power and intensity that once held the musical world in thrall. To the grandeur, finesse and diversity of the genre he has brought original source material to inform specific bowing techniques and the use of ornamentation. The result, as with Telemanns Suite in E minor, which stands firmly in the Lully tradition, and Rameaus magnificent Suite from Dardanus, evokes the spectacle and splendor of Versailles. Barthold Kuijken is an eminent leader in the field of early music. A virtuoso traverse soloist, teacher and conductor, he has shaped the fields of historical flutes and historically informed performance over the last forty years. Kuijken has widely performed and recorded the repertoire for the Baroque flute and has collaborated with other early music specialists including his brothers Sigiswald and Wieland Kuijken, Frans Bruggen, Gustav Leonhardt, and Paul Dombrecht.

"For quarter of a century Jean-Baptiste Lully reigned as the most powerful musician in France, and from there his influence was to spread throughout Western Europe. That power was to be particularly felt in the theatre where Lully was prolific in his composition of opera and ballet, though much he had imported from his native Italy. The presentation became increasingly elaborate, reaching its zenith with his last tragic opera, Armide, completed in 1686, the year before his death. He was also instrumental in creating a new style of French overture, the one to Armide opening this disc. Added to the changes he brought to opera were his use of a specific instrumentation of his scores, and that was handed down to his successors that included Jean-Philippe Rameau. On this new disc, given the title ‘The Lully Effect’, the eminent Flemish flautist, Barthold Kuijken, has created an Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra that would be similar in size and instruments to the one used by Lully, and playing period instruments. It is most probable that by the time Rameau’s Dardanus was first staged, a much larger group would have been used, though the numerical relationship of instruments would have been much the same. After some initial success the opera was to be one of Rameau’s most spectacular failures and even changing the unlikely plot failed to save it. Here Kuijken has a suite of fifteen extracts many being dances together with four Prologues. Certainly influenced was the German, Georg Philipp Telemann, but here the inclusion of the Ouverture Suite is rather tenuous. Those well versed in Early Music will greatly welcome this expertly played disc, the sound of gut strings adding an impact to the overall quality captured in a recording that avoids adding any gloss. Now listen to all of Armide on Naxos 8.660209-10. Issued ten years ago it is a benchmark release." (David’s Review Corner)
