harmonia mundi (en)

A pioneer in the rediscovery of the French Baroque repertory, William Christie has been recording Charpentier’s finest works for over forty years. This boxed set offers you the opportunity to rediscover the key titles among these benchmark interpretations, which have become hard to find, indeed totally unavailable, such as the Magnificat (1980), Actéon (1982), Médée (1984), Le Reniement de saint Pierre (1986) and David et Jonathas (1988). A significant aspect of the history of recording and of French music is once again available – in a limited edition.
