Israel Golani is not only known as a musicologist, but also as a musician, playing the theorbo, the lute and the baroque guitar. For this Suite in a Suite concert he has compiled a programme titled Raclerie Universelle, referring to the percussive technique of brushing the fingers over the snares. You will be treated to music that was written for Louis XIV, the Sun King, who had great admiration for Robert de Visée's style. 'At 8, Louis XIV retreats to his chamber. At 9 he summons Robert de Visée to play the guitar. Subsequently he has his supper in bed.'
