Froberger was the most famous keyboard virtuoso of the mid-seventeenth century. This recording of his elegant, colourful and intricately expressive dance music in the French lutestyle, arranged here in chronological order, is the first to employ all available sources in a new edition by Glen Wilson. An online essay accessible at www.naxos.com/notes/573493.htm explores in depth his views of the many problems of performance practice, and explains the famous programmatic pieces, which shed light on events in Froberger's life, including a near-drowning of a travelling companion in the Rhine.
