Justin Taylor’s recent album: “La Famille Rameau”

Justin Taylor’s liquid-mercury technique and exquisite touch are fully evident in this spectacular album recorded on the Harpsichord Donzelague c. 1730 and, for one cut, an Erard 1891 piano. The album features a gorgeous mix of works by members of the Rameau family – Jean-Philippe, Claude, Claude-François, and Lazare – complemented by works of two composers inspired by Jean-Philippe Rameau, Jean-François Tapray and Claude Debussy. This recording is rightly being showered with laudatory reviews from the critics.
