Emmanuelle Haïm conducts Handel and Rameau
In this recording from June 2011, the Early music specialist Emmanuelle Haïm conducts works by Handel, including his famous Water Music, plus pieces by Jean-Philippe Rameau who is still too little known outside France. The two suites, compiled especially for this concert from the composer’s stage works, demonstrate not only Baroque gracefulness but also the originality of Rameau, who experimented masterfully with sounds and effects.
