Florilegium has assembled a programme in which the refined if undemanding delights of French rococo music unfold gracefully. The chamber cantatas of Montéclair, both previously recorded, are sung with expressive delicacy by Julia Gooding. These provide a strong framework for instrumental chamber pieces by Rameau and Leclair which quickly reveal their great charm and deft craftsmanship. Morel and Naudot provide the icing on the cake.
