From it's earliest beginnings, the five-course Baroque guitar was associated - for better or worse - with dance music, becoming the sensuous younger cousin of the lute or vihuela. In this melange of music from seventeenth-century France, some of it recorded for the first time, and performed on baroque guitars including an original historic instrument from the Edinburgh University Collection of Historic Instruments, Gordon Ferries weaves a tapestry of sound that is at once elegant, earthy, and utterly timeless.
