DESCRIZIONE
Louise Renée de Penancoët de Kérouaille duchessa di Portsmouth, conosciuta come Lady Louise, fu una spia al soldo di Luigi XIV e amante di Carlo II. Incaricata di mantenere l’Inghilterra sotto l’influenza del Re Sole. Le finalità politiche permisero di creare anche stretti legami tra musicisti francesi e inglesi che hanno dato vita a un repertorio tanto ricco e brillante quanto espressivo. Una vera riscoperta che dobbiamo all’Ensemble Leviathan e a Lucile Tessier.
